在水果地里……还是蔬菜地里?(In a field of fruit…or vegetable?)
现在还来得及拿起一个南瓜来给你的门阶增添万圣节的气息。尽管南瓜在美国各地都有种植,但在美国生产的20亿磅南瓜中,大部分来自五个州——加利福尼亚州、伊利诺伊州、印第安纳州、宾夕法尼亚州和得克萨斯州。虽然加利福尼亚州种植的南瓜最多,销往南瓜灯市场,但伊利诺斯州的南瓜收成却以手续费取胜,尽管如此,它的大部分南瓜收成都是馅饼馅或其他加工产品——甚至可能是你的南瓜调味拿铁?
原文:
It's not too late to pick up a pumpkin to add some Halloween flair to your doorstep. Although pumpkins are grown across the United States, most of the 2 billion pounds produced in the US come from five states – California, Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and Texas. While California grows the most pumpkins headed for the jack-o'-lantern market, Illinois wins in poundage, though, most of its crop ends up as pie filling or other processed products – perhaps even your pumpkin spice latte?
