Aractus, ever notice that you can get a 10$ pair of sneakers, or a 50$ pair of sneakers, and the brand name is the only recognizable difference? You also pay for Libbys, if the store label isn't good enough for you. You can get store brand pumpkin puree for 89c a can.
Again, you'd be hard pressed to find fresh pumpkin on store shelves here any time other than halloween. Niche market, niche availability. During halloween (and sometimes into thanksgiving) fresh pumpkin is cheaper. Any other time of the year it's simply not present. The canned product is, ofc, also more convenient....since the only thing americans make with pumpkin, is pumpkin pie.
