Everyone loves Pumpkin Pie, but where did it come from? The pumpkin is native to the continent of North America. It was an early export to France; from there it was introduced to Tudor England, and the flesh of the “pompion” was quickly accepted as pie filler. The Pilgrims brought the pumpkin pie back to New England, but it subsequently died out in England itself.

Here’s a quick and easy Pumpkin Pie recipe:
