Prepare Yourselves: Pumpkin Spice is Back—Already

Just because it’s summertime, doesn’t mean that those fall-obsessed folks aren’t counting down the minutes until the leaves turn again. To some, this is just, well, “pre-fall.”

And if you aren’t convinced, just look at your grocery store shelves and see for yourself. Pumpkin spice products have already made their appearance. Yes, you read that right. Pumpkin spice is back, and shockingly, this is one trend that doesn’t seem to be slowing down.

We did it, fam. We survived another cold and dark nine month pumpkin spice drought, and here on July the 25th we can begin to become whole again. Dannon’s Light & Fit Pumpkin Pie is back already. I ate one yesterday, and will eat about 200 more through November. They’re awesome, I love them, and go buy them if you’re a Greek yogurt fan.

We know, we know, the weather is still screaming summer, but the fall industry is expanding its pumpkin-spiced-apple-cidery reach into the month of July.

To all you Summer fans out there, the end is near.
