4. Pumpkins
Pumpkins are a type of squash and considered a fruit. In 1584, a Frenchman
exploring America came across what he called “gros melons”. The English
translation of this term was “pompions”, which has now been evolved into
the current “pumpkin”. During Halloween, pumpkins are used for carving and
also to make pies and other foods. The largest pumpkin pie ever baked was in
2005 and weighed 2020 pounds!
