Hallowe'en Spirit

Okay, to blow the cob webs off of my blog (or maybe I should leave them there, now that Hallowe'en and coldness are in the air...), I will ring in the festivities of the fall with this pumpkin big mac that I saw on Boing Boing. It was originally posted on the Bits & Pieces blog. It's a great picture, and I am in the market for some pumpkin carving ideas, so any suggestions are well-welcome. But I have to say that the comments are just as good. It is great to see the debate over the iconic burger-pumpkin, complete with giant meat patty and all.
Here is a sample of the comments: what is the point of this?

As an obese American, I would totally eat this. Also, I would totally thank God for creating a country full of yummy pumpkin burgers I could eat in front of other countries with their rice and veggies and crap. Totally.

Yeah, not enough patties to be a Big Mac

I think that pumpkin is deceptively small, therefore the patty is probably not that big.
