#PumpkinsAreAVegetableToBeEaten: 

At least we in Guyana do so. It is sliced without the skin and stewed with fish, beef, chicken or shrimp. 

After which it is eaten with rice on the side, or sliced bread. It is usually very sweet in nature, and when it is stewed in olive or cooking oil, with any of the above ingredients, it is very tasty indeed.

We do not waste this vegetable in any celebrations in Guyana.
