VEGAN

Whole Foods bakery

first of all: i appreciate that whole foods has a vegan pumpkin pie available and i appreciate that it is CLEARLY labeled.

i have not perfected my own vegan pumpkin pie recipe yet, so i will compare this to pies i’ve had before i was vegan. i would say for a store bought pumpkin pie i was impressed! i think the crust was solid (although vegan pie crust is not a difficult feat) and the filling was appropriately flavored and textured. i have had vegan pumpkin pie with an almost congealed filling texture, but this one was not gummy and melted in your mouth. i feel like the flavor could have been better, but then again this is a store bought pumpkin pie and the flavor itself has nothing on home-roasted pumpkin pie if they were just using purée— so for what it is, i do enjoy the flavor.

i think there could have been a tiny bit more filling, but it wasn’t enough to make me believe they were skimping on the filling. i will also add that some vegan whipped cream would really improve this, but i ate this with a fork in the car and did not have any vegan whip available.

edit: i just looked at the other pictures and saw that every other whole foods pumpkin pie has twice as much filling height as mine did. 🤨

texture: 10/10
flavor: 8/10
