It's fall which means that the pumpkin spice craze has officially has begun though Starbucks went ahead than most of us and brought their pumpkin spice latte (PSL) during the summer on August 28th. As a person who loves the season of fall I don't understand the craze people have for pumpkin spice, especially pumpkin spice lattes.

Last year while working at Starbucks I made myself a PSL and it tasted basic and disgusting. I don't get it how people like the taste of pumpkin spice, maybe my taste buds are not for it, but I do find it ridiculous how pumpkin spice has taken over the food industry and it has to stop. Here are some examples of how pumpkin spice has taken over our world.

1. Cream cheese

Walmart

Pumpkin spice has made it into our bagels.

 2. Cereal 

Mr. Breakfast

What is wrong with the honey flavored Cheerios during fall?

3. Liquor 

Foodbeast

People are trying to get tipsy with pumpkin spice.

4. Coffee creamer 

I guess pumpkin spice lattes aren't enough.

5. Tea

Celestial Seasonings

Pumpkin Spice in tea does not seem like a bad idea.

6. Pancakes 

The recipe critic

I'll like my pancakes plain or with blueberries, no pumpkin spice please.

7. Pringles 

Classy Mommy

Original salty Pringles are the best, lets keep it that way.

8. Ice cream

KJRH

The idea of pumpkin spice in ice cream does not seem like a bad idea at all.

9. Yogurt 

Mmm no thanks.

10. Oreo cookies  

She Knows

I'm not surprised at this.

11. Peeps 

Dinosaur Dracula

Peeps got into the craze.

12. Sausage 

Reddit

I don't know how I feel about this.

13. Gum 

Total Sorority Move

Gum? Really? Come on people, what is wrong with minty breath during the fall?

14. Butter 

Hellogiggles

Land Lakes made pumpkin butter. Wow.

Pumpkin spice has gotten out of hand in, but the smell of it brings nostalgia. People love the taste of pumpkin spice because they love the idea that fall has begun and that the holidays such as Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas are on their way. I guess I get it then because who doesn't like the holidays!

Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
