And suddenly, canned pumpkin has disappeared from the shelves. The Los Angeles Times reported Nov. 18, 2009 said Nestle reported that heavy Midwest rains had wiped out much of what remained of an already-small pumpkin crop and supermarkets reported that pumpkin pie supplies were tight. If you depend on pumpkin, better scour the supermarkets. I found organic pumpkin at Safeway and regular pumpkin at Target Superstore. Who knew?
