In other news, the largest pumpkin in Alaska record has just been broken in Fairbanks. 752 pounds.
So, this pumpkin, do you suppose the seeds would be good eating? I mean most big pumpkins don't actualy have many seeds, and they're kind of tough.
In my experience, these giant vegetables are nothing special in the taste department. I could go over to the produce tent at the Fairgrounds and check it out, but parking is bad. OTOH, I could go over through my backyard and sneak in through the judge parking. One mile by foot, six miles by road. OTOH, it's too hot and smoky to do much of anything today.
