Much like the weather alternating between highs of 70s and 40s each day, or my sleep schedule, the dairy section at seminal food market Hyde Park Produce (HPP) is in an awkward transition period, to say the least.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, it\u2019s definitely fall food season for sure,\u201d said HPP worker Amanda Young. \u201cPumpkin spice stuff is everywhere, but considering the corporate Christmas season starts even before Halloween, stocking the dairy section\u2019s been a little challenging.\u201d<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n
Halloween season and Christmas season starting at essentially the same time makes for awkward holiday conversations. Young added that this time of the year involves explaining to customers that brown eggs are not, in fact, cinnamon or pumpkin-spice flavored. She also clarified that pumpkin spice latte milk does not come from orange cows. While fall-flavored eggnog is definitely better than Boar\u2019s Head Imported Pumpkin Spice Prosciutto or organic salads featuring real fallen tree leaves, not everyone seemed big on the idea.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Area Divinity School student Jack Gnabry offered his point of view from the consumer perspective.\u00a0\u201cDon\u2019t get me wrong \u2013 I love me some PSLs, and I love me some eggnog\u2013 but pumpkin spice eggnog?

\u201cWhy am I even having eggnog? I\u2019m lactose intolerant.

Also, I don\u2019t like thinking about the ingredients of Fireball,\u201d she added, before buying a gallon of pumpkin spice eggnog and nacho cheese she vehemently denied were for personal consumption and running out of the store.<\/p>\n
