PumpkinThe oldest pumpkin seeds were found in Mexico between 7000 BC and 5500 BC.
Today, pumpkin can be found in all continents except Antarctica and is mostly grown for commercial use, in recipes, and for recreational activities such as carving jack-o'-lanterns for Halloween.If not for the Columbian Exchange, the world will not have pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving, nor the delicious pumpkin recipes, nor all the fun that surrounds pumpkins.
The cultivation of pumpkins spread throughout the world when the European explorers, returning from their journeys, brought back many of the agricultural treasures of the New World.The crop is extremely versatile and can be incorporated into many recipes if done correctly. It can also be baked, boiled, steamed, or roasted.
