The trick is to freeze them for about 20 mins, spray the inside with lemon juice, toss them out, and buy a plastic one at Michael’s.
I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.
Was hoping someone had magical cure for this
There was a magical cure for this back in the day. In ancient times pumpkins like these were displayed outside where the weather was cold enough for them to keep for weeks. Now that we’ve raised the planet’s temperature, that isn’t a good option in many places.
There actually is. You can either spray the inside and cut surfaces with hairspray, or smear them with Vaseline. That will seal it from the atmosphere and it should last a lot longer.
Hairspray seems kinda flammable… But you sound knowledgeable enough 🤣
Yeah it’s best if you spray it on well in advance of lighting the candle…
As opposed to Vaseline?
I actually didn’t know if it was or not. I did some research and apparently it’s not. “Vaseline is not very flammable. Though it is made from petroleum (which can be very flammable) it will not ignite easily in most situations.”.
