Autumn is the season of pumpkin harvest, there are many varieties of pumpkins, which can be used in dishes, can be stuffed, and can replace some staple foods.

Pumpkin is rich in cobalt, it is a trace element necessary for the synthesis of insulin by islet cells, the content ranks first in all kinds of vegetables, often eating pumpkin helps to regulate insulin levels, thereby preventing diabetes and lowering blood sugar. The rich dietary fiber in pumpkin can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, and the rich pectin has a good adsorption effect, helping to remove harmful substances in the intestine and delaying the absorption of sugar and lipids in the intestine.
Pumpkin has many benefits and is cheap, and you can buy one for a few dollars. If you plant better at home, sprinkle a few seeds in the field at random, usually take care of it, you can harvest a dozen or more pumpkins in the autumn, and it is not difficult to eat until the spring.
When I talk about this, I miss the days when I had land at home when I was a child. Well, long story short, you can eat 3 of them on the bun and play like you can!
