Can pumpkin anyone???

Has anyone been able to find can pumpkin? I know I read online there's another storage. At my Giant, I spoke with the manager and they said that most likely they won't be getting in this year. I'm really bummed, I really wanted to make some pumpkin bread.

If you spot cans anywhere can you please let me know. TIA!

Re: Can pumpkin anyone???

  • I bought 10 cans last year when I found them bc I had heard there was a shortage but then every time I went to the store afterwards there was a ton of them. So I have a ton of them. I presume they're still good?

  • I bought 15 cans last week, we use them a lot for the dogs and fosters, so when I heard about the shortage I stocked up! I did still see plenty yesterday when I ran to the store though.
  • We bought last year because 1) we like to have our pumpkin beer brewed for October, so we need to start brewing in August/September and you usually cannot get canned pumpkin until late September/early October and 2)we thought there would be a shortage

  • Shoot! I only picked up 2 cans of organic pumpkin at Safeway last week.  I should have bought more!

    Trader Joe's usually has them as well. 

  • We have also found them at Food Lion and MOM's.

  • I think we have one can left from last year, but this reminds me I have to look this weekend.  I LOVE adding pumpkin to stuff, cupcakes (instead of oil) pancakes, waffles.  I LOVE fall!!

  • There were plenty of cans at my Safeway in AACo on Monday.

  • So it looks like maybe Harford County is running low. I'll be in AACo today, so I'll swing by the grocery store there.

  • They had some at wegmans hunt valley. I am going to wegmans bel air today and will check. I need to keep some in the house for the dogs (and for baking). If all else fails though, Williams sonoma makes a few great pumpkin products, like cupcakes, and I think bread too :)

    I didn't even think to look at Wegmans on Saturday, but it was a tad bit crazy there. If you spot any today at the Bel Air store can you let me know.

    Thanks!

  • I think I got mine at Sam's club last year when I couldn't find any in the grocery store.

  • I bought the Libby's Pumpkin Bread baking kit in Sam's Club a few weeks ago.  Included two cans of pumpkin.

  • I don't think that this year's pumpkin shortage (which is a result of Hurricane Irene) is going to affect this year's canned pumpkin supply.  

    The canned pumpkin is probably from pumpkins that were harvested last year- in order for them to be in stores now through November.

  • You can also make pumpkin puree...roast a pumpkin in the oven...scoop out the insides and put it in a food processor.  I did it last year with our leftover pumpkins and it made some delicious bread!

  • Wal-Mart in Fallston and Kliens in Forest Hill both had TONS!
  • Giant in Annapolis (Riva Festival Shopping Center) had tons and Trader Joe's had tons of the organic kind.
