Some Food Just Shouldn't Be Halloween-ified

This wouldn't ordinarily be something I'd weigh in on, but a big ramen noodle company is making pumpkin spice ramen this year. It's kind of funny that this made the news this year, because pumpkin spice ramen has already been a thing for at least a year. I know, I've had it, which is why I have an opinion on the subject beyond "oh, that's kind of weird and probably gross." Admittedly, when I did try it, I didn't think it was the worst thing in the world, but it was a big party situation (yes, I go to the sort of parties where people bring pumpkin spice ramen) and I was rather drunk at the time. My taste buds were not operating at peak capacity. However, just because I didn't hate it doesn't mean pumpkin spice ramen should be a thing again. I have not offered a ringing endorsement beyond "it didn't make me immediately regret my life choices." Because you know what? Pumpkin spice ramen is kind of weird, and if you haven't had half a bottle of liquor, probably gross too. Some ideas should never go past the suggestion stage, and this is one of them.
