Are We Here for Pumpkin Spice?

     Pumpkin Spice! We love it right? This topic tends to vary based on who and where you ask. So I have decided to see what Bob Jones High School had to say about it. Let's see if Bob Jones likes Pumpkin Spice or hates it. 

     

     But first, a bit of history about the Pumpkin Spice Latte. The Pumpkin Spice Latte came to be in 2003 by a few employees who worked at a Starbucks. They were just messing around with a slice of Pumpkin Pie and shots of Espresso. "Literally, we took some espresso, just poured it on the pumpkin pie, and then tasted it," said Peter Dukes, one of the co-creators of the Pumpkin Spice Latte. "If you asked anybody in that room if pumpkin spice was going to become an entire industry … nobody would have guessed that," Duke told. And now “Pumpkin Spice” has become a household name and is one of the most well-known drinks at Starbucks. 

     

     Now the thing we all came for, what did Bob Jones think about Pumpkin Spice? Well, it was very varied answers, but people dislike it or think it’s pretty in the middle. 
For example: 
   Over 40% of people don’t like Pumpkin Spice and only 27% of people like Pumpkin Spice, and about 32% sit in the middle. And when asked what they liked about it, if they do like it, they mainly liked the warmth and spices of the Pumpkin Spice. Some also like the fact that it's spicy. Other's like the cold foam on top! With a hint of people liking the cinnamon that is on top. Then a huge percentage just haven’t tried it yet. Then some people tend to like it for the aesthetics. But then, they were asked one more question… “Would you care if Pumpkin Spice never came back in 2024?” and over 50% of people said that they would not care if it came back. And again about 25% of people would care if it did not make its return next year. And you guessed it, about 25% of people didn't share if they would care if the Pumpkin Spice would come back. 

    

     But all and all, we can see what the controversy is with the Pumpkin Spice. Some said no, some said yes. And some said that they had no clue what it tasted like. But the true question is... Do you like Pumpkin Spice?
