No, I'd do it again, they were pretty good actually. You can vaguely, vaguely taste the spice, but for the most part...

You know how some barbque sauces are sweeter than others? Think of it in that light. Not that it was particularly sweet, but that you can easily add sweet and spicy flavors (like cinnamon and clove) to a barbque sauce to change the flavors rather nicely. It's along the same lines. (All pumpkin spice is is exactly that. Cinamon, clove, and nutmeg.) The pumpkin part itself is fairly bland in taste, so you don't really pick up on it all that much (most of Pumpkin pie's taste comes from the cinammon/nutmeg/cloves... and lots of whipcream on top ;-)

Did anybody know that the scent of pumpkin was rated as a #1 aphrodisiac for women? One more reason the holidays put a smile on people's faces.
