Okay, I've been wanting to ask this for years - Am I the only one here who hates pumpkin?

I like pumpkin but don't get the butternut squash love. Acorn is better & easier to handle too.

Not a fan but I'll eat it in desserts. Liking it more as I approach death.

Pumpkin = Yuck. Not in a pie, not in a doughnut, not in a soup...

Butternut is dense and delicious IMO
The pumpkin here in America is very watery compared to the flat white South African pumpkins, so the closest I can come is butternut and calabaza. In SA my favourite way of cooking pumpkin was to slice it, smear with a little butter, cover with cinnamon sugar, and bake. So delicious.
Acorn is nice, but also watery. I love the buttercup squash too.
