I LOVE pumpkin!! I'm down to four cans. Apparently, there was flooding in the pumpkin fields in the midwest where they're grown. There are 2 things in this world I must have for my WOE, pumpkin and spaghetti squash. I cannot compromise. I am sad without either one! They're both a bit carby and I can fill up with them and still not see a gain. In fact, I lost most of my weight eating them both up! Signs line the shelves at the grocery store apologizing for the shortage of pumpkin and saying the shelves will go unstocked with it until August. UNacceptable.
I have been to countless stores hunting for pumpkin. All of the old ladies (sorry, no offense old ladies!!) bought up all of the pumpkin supplies between Thanksgiving and Christmas. All of the seasonal users have deprived this daily faithful user of pumpkin. Then, I come here and read all of these posts about pumpkin. It's torture, people!! Induction Boy wants to taste a low carb pumpkin pie but in my pumpkin greed (and NO supply) how can I put him first and share my pumpkin?! I simply cannot.
So, last night I went out on a limb. I messaged Glenda and asked her if she thought I was crazy for wanting to spend $150 online to buy 5 cases of pumpkin!! She messaged back, buying pumpkin online, what's this world coming to?!
This is going to be quite a heavy shipment!! Each case has 12 cans, the 29 ounce can. I aint playin'. I need my pumpkin fix. Shipping was only $11.95 and I think I got a steal!! Ultimately, I'm only paying 20 cents more per can than I would have here at the store and considering the no supply and my huge demand, I am now a happy camper awaiting my delivery!!

I bought 4 cases of Libby's 29 oz. cans early in November from my local wholesale club (BJ's) for cheap. 
). I then put it back in the microwave for about 40 seconds, stir, and it is done. As Ev indicated, it can be eaten warm or cold. Beware, though! This concoction contains 15 net carbs. So anyone who doesn't want to use up that many carbs can leave out the nuts and/or cut back on portion sizes of the ingredients. I ate it for a long time without the nuts, and it is good that way, as well. It does have a high fat percentage because of the 2 ounces of cream cheese, but I don't stress over that. Lots of people get by with only 1 ounce of cream cheese, but I like how creamy it is with the 2 ounces. This makes a pretty big bowl, too, so you may not need to make this much. My husband always talked about how good it smells when I make it, so I made it for him one day. He couldn't finish it all because it is kinda rich. Cutting this in half would have been enough for him. I always finish mine, though.
