[Jet Raptor]

Zoom in, it is a tipped over pot with white stuff spilling out

It looks more like a half-eaten candy to me ._.

[Black_Phantom]

Just got some pumpkin pie! Going to bed and I will resume my search for tricks/treats tomorrow.

Yummy! I want!

I have to agree.

[Drakrono]

Actually it was to ward off the evil spirits that supposedly arose during Hallow's eve. They collected pieces of the embers from a big bonfire made to ward the spirits off, and they would take it home in the turnip to put in their fire/wood place/stove to continue to ward them off.

 

They used turnips because the "holiday" originated in Europe, and pumpkins are not native to Europe. People started using pumpkins when they came to the Americas because they didn't have turnips and pumpkins were more convenient.

 

 

 

In other news, I got a rat, on a stick.

 

Brutal, but love it.

 

Oh, I thought they carved the turnips to ward off spirits, didn't know about the bonfire part!
