I have a confession to make.

I amnota pumpkin spice girl.

I have nothing against pumpkin in generalI lovepumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, or really hearty pumpkin soup.

But I will go out on a limb and say absolutely no one needs pumpkin spice hummus.

I think my fundamental issue with many of these products is they lack the actual pumpkin.

They may be spiced like a pumpkin pie, but where is the actual pumpkin flavor?

In my household, the holiday season is not complete without the original flavor kringle.

The one I spotted at TJs was Pumpkin Caramel Flavor, which had me a bit conflicted.

This pumpkin caramel-flavored kringle isspectacular, and the best part is I could see and taste pumpkin.

In fact, pumpkin is the second ingredient on the ingredient list.

The filling is well-spiced and also has a nice note of deep caramel flavor.

But throwing it in the air fryer for a few minutes the next day wasamazing.
