I must admit, sorry pumpkin fans, but this pumpkin spice thing is over the top. I think it's jumped the shark, as was coined in 1985 by Jon Hein in response to a 1977 episode from the fifth season of the American sitcom Happy Days, in which Fonzie jumps over a shark while on water-skis.

We can get anything with pumpkin spice now. For example (the actual pumpkin spice excluded):

• Cupcakes
• Lattes
• Candles
• Hand soap
• Body spray (with the addition of a marshmallow scent as well)
• Beer
• Bread
• English muffins
• Cream cheese
• Ravioli
• Cranberry crisps
• Cherrios
• Frosted Mini-Wheats
• Special K
• Oreos
• Milanos
• Twinkies (guaranteed to last for the next few years)
• and the list goes on...

These ones took me to the edge:

• Pumpkin Spice Nissin Cup Noodles
• Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice SPAM 
• Burts Bees Pumpkin Spice Lip Balm
• Pumpkin Spice Latte Deodorant

Come on now...
