The single most prominent example of pumpkin insanity is probably Trader Joe's. There's almost nothing without pumpkin available. They wouldn't keep offering it if it didn't sell, but it's a little deranged. In any case, their Frequent Flyer had an ad for their chicken pot pie (no pumpkin!) and I have to give props to the copy writers:

When meat and poultry-filled pies were first conceived - evidence dates this as far back as the Roman Empire - it wasn't entirely surprising to cut into the pastry and be met with live birds flying out at you (evidence for this can be found in Game of Thrones).
