I love pumpkin pie, but the stench of chemically created "pumpkin spice" wafting through the stores absolutely turns my stomach. I avoid coffee shops, all season, and have been know to flee a store when it gets too overwhelming. Pity the person who tries to offer me a 'sample'.

There are plenty of local coffee shops within walking distance of my apartment that make a better mocha for cheaper.
