I get how fun a pumpkin splat might be to some.
But, did you know that pumpkins are squash and squash is food?
As long as the pumpkins are in good shape to be eaten, those could have been repurposed into food.
Wash them off, cut off the top, remove the seeds and put the whole thing into the oven to cook as a squash.
Just a thought for future!
