Hello, there, fellow MyLotters. I’m doing a writing prompt for this post, which states “What are your favorite fall foods? Is there a specific memory of this food that sticks out in your mind?” Okay, the first one is popcorn, especially caramel corn, and yes I do have a memory that sticks out in my mind. Last year, and possibly the year before, I would pick up caramel corn at the Apple Festival and have a little during American Horror Story each week. We didn’t make it to the Apple Festival this year, but there’s still time to get some before this season of AHS ends (especially since it just started a few weeks ago lol). I also like candy corn and those little pumpkins, as well as hot chocolate, but I don’t have a memory that sticks out with either of them. What are your favorite fall foods? I’m gonna get back to work. Have a great day/evening, everyone. :) Photo Credit: Pixabay.

I'm missing my Mom so I'll say doughnuts. She made the best doughnuts. I'd help her shake the doughnuts in cinnamon and sugar in a paper bag.

@tammys85 Thanks for the sweet hugs. Mom is still in the living but has dementia so she's not my old Mom.

Yes! A fellow candy corn and little pumpkin lover! I feel like many people hate them. I haven't had caramel corn in ages but it sounds amazing. I really don't know what my favorite autumn food is, just give me anything with a pumpkin on it or in it and I'm happy haha

@DesirousDreamer Yesssss. I don't eat too many at once though because of how sweet they are, but they're so good. And I want some caramel corn now lol. You're in luck, the pumpkin (spice) flavors are starting to come out. :)

Mine is fresh apple cider...And just about everything else made from apples---strudel, pie, crisp, etc etc etc---And I know you can get all of them year-round but they seem to be best right now.

I definitely associate apples with fall snacks. Apple pie sounds good. :)

@xander6464 I may see if we can make some this season. I can't believe I didn't list pumpkin pie in my post.

When fall comes around, and the weather starts being fall-ish, I like a good bowl of homemade chili. Chili season has officially arrived. As a kid, I liked caramel apples.

I don't really eat it, but my family loves chili, especially my Mom and brother-in-law. I can't remember the last time I had a caramel apple, but it sounds good.

@just4him I rarely eat caramel apples. I always heard they give you a toothache. I just realized I forgot a food --- pumpkin pie.

@Courtlynn Girl, I totally forgot to list pumpkin pie lol. I think I was thinking more of the Halloween season rather than the fall season in general.

I like the pumpkins from the candy corn assorted bag. I also got a honey candy corn last year that I really liked. I like apple cider, pumpkin everything, and squashes. I like a lot of different types of stews and soups, though they aren't just for fall. Hmm.. I like marshmallows, again not a fall exclusive, but I consume them more during the fal.

I don't think I've had honey candy corn before, it sounds good though. I could see marshmallows being a fall snack for some reason. Maybe because that's when a lot of people hold bonfires.

There are many things that I like, but something that I can only have on Fall are chestnuts roasted on an open fire, this is something I love.

I've heard of them, but never had them. Are they sweet, or salty?

@tammys85 They are nor sweet nor salty, but I would say more on a sweet note than salty, I would say you can compare to a sweet potato.
