Fun Facts About Halloween
The tradition of carving jack-o'-lanterns originally used turnips, not pumpkins. Irish immigrants brought the tradition to America, where pumpkins — native to the continent — became the preferred carving vegetable. Pumpkins are far easier to carve and grew abundantly in the New World.
