Pumpkin for President!

Welcome, welcome, one and all, to the greatest season of all! 

Pumpkin Season! 

Tasty here bringing you some of the fabulous pumpkin finds we have had this year!

Pumpkin Ice Cap
Tim Hortons



Found at Tim Hortons, this ice cappuccino is definitely worth the money, it has a good sweetness with plenty of pumpkin flavor to assist it. It's served with small pumpkin spice crumbles on top, they can be tasty. But usually I prefer to order mine without them, just because they sometimes get into the drink and it's just better without them in the way! I could drink these every day, and it really is possible! Tim Hortons offers their pumpkin spice ice capps all year long. Maybe I should keep that on the DL.


Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino 
(in the glass bottles)
Sold at most retail stores




I was really, really excited when i spotted this in Target. But I ended up kind of let down. It wasn't what I was expecting. I thought it was going to be almost smooth and great like all of the other flavor options they have created. But for me it was a bit overwhelming. It seemed to have a lot of spice. It did have a gourmet flavor though.

I ended up giving the rest of what I didn't drink to Seth, and he definitely disagreed with me. He enjoyed it! So maybe it was just me. I'm not sure. Seth said it was what he expected down to a T.

Either way, if you enjoy Starbucks and pumpkin I insist you give it a try for yourself!

Starbucks Actual Frappuccino 
Starbucks


The typical "white girl" drink of the season! So fantastic. Sorry about the not-so-fantastic photo, but I mean who hasn't seen a Starbucks cup before? Anyways, if you're craving something pumpkin to wake you up in the morning, look no further.

White Chocolate Pumpkin Spice frozen drink
Scioto Valley



Located only in Circleville, Ohio, this independent run coffee joint definitely makes a great Pumpkin coffee, or any coffee for that matter.

The frozen White Chocolate Pumpkin Spice is a vortex of delicious coffee joined together with a huge Pumpkin taste, and a hint of a soft white chocolate. This drink was awesome!

We love Scioto Valley, and their crimson cups, and you should too! Definitely stop in and grab a cup!



Iced Coffee with added Pumpkin Spice flavoring
Scioto Valley



Scioto Valley made it twice on our list for a great reason. We know that pumpkin spice iced coffee is a tough thing to find! But we have found it for you!

If you strictly prefer Iced Coffee (like Mr. Smith.. cough cough) and still want that seasonal Pumpkin flavor in the fall, Scioto Valley has you covered!

It may not be featured on the menu as "Pumpkin Spice Iced Coffee" but if you request an ice coffee with Pumpkin Spice they will make it happen! And it is delicious! Heavy Pumpkin taste with the coffee flavor you also expect.


Lindt Lindor Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Truffles
Most Groceries




Lindt Lindor Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Truffles are definitely a one of a kind Chocolate. It is definitely a must try. One of the more noticeable things about it is that the pumpkin flavor isn't overdone which was great. You were still able to taste the delicious original Lindor Chocolate.

Perfect ratios equal perfect Truffles!



Krispy Kreme Glazed Pumpkin Spice Cake Doughnuts
Most Groceries




POUR SOME SUGAR ON.. Oh, where was I. These Doughnuts were very sweet! Krispy Kreme will have you singing that old tune every time you take a bite of these sugary creations.

They are very rich and filling. The pumpkin flavor is at a good level, but the sweetness really plays the biggest part in these Doughnuts.


Pumpkin Cheesecake Milkshake
Arby's

Usually you don't expect to see a fast food restaurant on a food blog, but Arby's may have topped themselves here.

This milkshake is definitely worth while. We were blown away when we tasted this masterpiece. The milkshake is surprisingly smooth and the pumpkin flavor blends well with all of the ingredients.

Whatever secret Arby's uses for this delicious frozen drink is right on the money. Perfect for the fall season!


Pillsbury Grands Pumpkin Spice Roll's
Most Groceries





Appearing to be much like a cinnamon rolls, these rolls will take you on an unexpected flavorfull experience. This was first time we ever tried the Pumpkin Rolls. They had a very strong Pumpkin flavor, and an awesome, warm, make you wanna cuddle up and watch a good horror movie kinda taste.

Pumpkin Spice Oreo's
Found in most Stores 




The creators of Oreo's have been becoming more and more bold with their flavor options. And we think theyre making some good moves.

They replaced the original Oreo's cream with orange pumpkin spice cream, and replaced the crunchy Chocolate sandwich cookies with a pumpkin flavored cookie. The color of the cookie itself resembles pie crust, making sure your mouth waters.

These are definitely a must try. It's really outside of an Oreo's flavor element which makes it so mysterious at first glance but fun to eat later. And they taste amazing if I may add.

McDonald's Pumpkin Spice Latte

McDonald's actually has good coffee, and what better way to complement a McDonald's Latte than a little bit of pumpkin! They really give you what you ask for in a pumpkin flavored cup of Joe, a simple, smooth and tasty Latte that's a lot different from their other choices. Too bad it only comes once a year!

McDonald's Pumpkin Pies



McDonald's is changing things up! I used to love the typical simplistic pumpkin pies they offered. But now they seem to have added some type of cream along with the pumpkin pie filling which is a bit odd.

We prefer McDonald's Pumpkin pie the way it used to be, without the cream. Although the change wasnt their best move, we didnt think the pies were terrible.

 It was a pie, and who doesn't love pie?


Pumpkin Pie Pop Tarts
Most Groceries 


Whether you're a fan of Pop Tarts, or a fan of pumpkin pie, or a fan of both, Pumpkin Pop tarts will not disappoint. It will be the quickest piece of pumpkin pie you've ever had made in your toaster.... oh wait you don't make Pumpkin pie in the toaster..... but these Pop tarts are still pretty tasty.

O'Fallon Pumpkin Beer
Groceries 



With the taste of normal beer with slight bite of pumpkin, this beer was fantastic. The pumpkin flavor itself plays the part of the smoothness in this beer which gave it an absolute original taste.



Lindsey's Pumpkin Doughnuts
Lindsey's Bakery 



If you've never been to Circleville, Ohio, then we are about to give you a great reason to go... Lindsey's Bakery!

Lindsey's is known for their delicious doughnuts and other baked goods. If you ever come to this small round town, you must go in and grab a couple of their delicious Pumpkin Doughnuts.

These are by far the best pumpkin Doughnuts in the world. With no exaggeration, these Pumpkin Doughnuts are unbeatable. Delicious and rich with flavor without being over powering, you have to get one to understand how delicious they are.

And to make it all the better, they sell their Pumpkin Doughnuts all year round!

We hope you enjoyed our post as much as we enjoy Pumpkin! Keep in touch,
-Tasty

Roosters, it's an Ohio thing!

We are so proud to be from Ohio for so many reasons, and Roosters being one of them!  Roosters is a restaurant that only 'Ohioans' or Ohio visitors know about. It's not a five star fancy schmansy restaurant, just a tasty and fun place to eat at on a weekend or after a long days work. The famous slogan really speaks for itself "A fun, casual, joint", but it doesn't happen to mention the delicious food they have available!  We are regular Rooster customers, we usually go a couple of times a month. We usually stick with our favorites from the menu, but you really can't go wrong with anything they have to offer. Whether it's the loaded nachos, a burger, or their tender boneless wings dipped in your choice of TOP OF THE LINE wing sauce, you wont be disappointed. Most of the time we go with the boneless wings drenched in tangy sweet Thai chili sauce. The quality of the meat is unbeatable, but the big kicker for us is the sauce. The sweet

Amorino has the Gelato

  Oh gelato, you make me smile, especially in the form of a beautiful rose. Yes, you read that correctly, gelato in the shape of a rose. You can find this so called rose shaped gelato at Amarino in Chicago. After hearing about this place, I HAD to add it to our itinerary while we were back in the Windy City. Amarino is downtown, and we didn’t have that much trouble finding parking. We went later in the afternoon; I would say around 5 p.m. and found Amarino to be especially empty. When you enter the double sliding doors (cool touch) you will be right in front of their gelato selections. They have a wide selection. We came for the rose, but you are able to get a simple bowl instead as well.  When finally deciding what flavors we wanted we ended up with Pistachio, cookie butter, and chocolate. The flavors went very well together. We watched in awe as the server sculpted a beautiful rose master piece in front of us. It turned out so pretty!

Fatso's.. hopefully Not-so Last Stand

Fatso’s Last Stand is a "somewhat" fast food restaurant that can also be found on the outskirts of Chicago. When it comes to hot-dogs, Chicago is the place you want to be. For those who may not know, the traditional Chicago dog includes an all-beef frank placed on a poppy seed bun, with a lot of toppings such as, white onions, bright green sweet pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices, pickled peppers, and lastly yellow mustard. Out of the many, many, places in Chicago you can find a great hot dog we wound up at Fatso’s. Not only does Fatso’s offer great hot-dogs, they have their own spin on hamburgers. The burger is famously named “The Fatso Burger” and we couldn’t leave without trying both. When ordering you’ll also notice that all of their hot-dogs are served Chicago style, but you can add or remove all the toppings that you would like. Fatso’s has a few different types of hot-dogs to pick from in terms of the meat and style
