The Plastic Pumpkin

Meet The Mascot Of Our Broken World: The Plastic Pumpkin

"Jack-o’-lantern season is here, and if you have $23.49 to spare you could always get yourself a styrofoam pumpkin from Walmart to truly bring the horror of Halloween to life. You’ll need to be fast though; the orange version has already sold out online. Fake pumpkins seem to be everywhere. πŸŽƒ Dollar Tree has a styrofoam range that you can β€œcut, carve, paint, and add props to.” And Target is offering an $8 carve-your-own plastic pumpkin with β€œhighlights” including its compatibility with most pumpkin carving kits."

"Truth is, there’s something else that fits these descriptions: a natural pumpkin." πŸŽƒ
