Pumpkin Spice Lattés might get all the love, but if you're exclusively team PSL, you're missing out on tons of other pumpkin-flavored beverages and snacks. So, let me help you out by telling you the pumpkin flavored thing you should try based on your sign. While this information is totally unscientific, it is based on my consulting both a Magic 8 Ball and an astrology app to uncover the one pumpkin flavored thing that you're totally going to love. Because, even your food preferences are written in the stars.

Kind of like the three Ayurvedic doshas — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha — your zodiac sign can have an influence on the kind of foods and drinks you like and how your body responds to them. While you might love a Starbucks Pumpkin Spiced Latté, that same drink could send your bestie into a serious sugar crash. Your friend is not being overly dramatic; everyone's body processes foods differently.

This is because all of our bodies are made differently, and everyone has different celestial bodies in the natal chart. So, your zodiac sign actually can influence why you like to eat and drink certain things. Curious what pumpkin flavored food or drink is going to be your favorite? Read on to find about what the stars say.

1Aries Needs Fuel To Take Over The World

People born under Aries are natural-born leaders and trendsetters. According to Tarot.com, "This fearless sign lives life as a warrior, infusing everything it touches with fire, passion, and strength." This means that Aries needs fuel to keep the fire burning, and always-on-the-go Aries might be too busy being a boss to always take time to eat right. JUS By Julie's Squash-kin Spice Juice is the perfect way for Aries to get a taste of fall flavor (did you know pumpkin is actually a squash?) while also getting the key nutrients they need to keep being badass. This pumped-up (not so basic), healthy drink has a delicious blend of squash, apples, bananas, rice milk, nutmeg, and cinnamon, and it's vegan, kosher, non-GMO, and gluten free.

2Taurus Likes To Indulge In The Finer Things

While Taurus-born people can be know as stubborn and frugal, the bull also knows how to indulge where it really matters. "Taurus' sensual nature and love of beauty, food, and art makes the world a more pleasurable place for everyone," Tarot.com noted. This means Taurus isn't going to skimp when it comes to food, especially sweets. Pumpkin Spice LINDOR Truffles are the perfect pumpkin treat for Taurus. With a delicate milk chocolate shell wrapped around an irresistibly smooth pumpkin spice truffle filling, this sweet treat gets the job done without breaking the bank — a double win for the bull.

3Gemini Eats Their Pumpkin With Friends

Uber-social Gemini is going to want to share their pumpkin flavored food with their friends. "As the most talkative sign of the zodiac, the twins are known to be social, and are always on the lookout for a good time," Tarot.com noted. Because eating is a super social activity, the best pumpkin food for Gemini is a pumpkin pasta sauce, like Cucina Antica Pasta Sauce, Tuscany Pumpkin, that they can quickly prepare when they're hosting an impromptu dinner party for 20 of their nearest and dearest.

4Cancer Craves Comfort Food

The ultimate homebody, Cancer craves foods that feel nurturing. "Nurturing and protective, Cancer loves to take care of people and make everyone feel at home," Tarot.com explained. For the crab, the pumpkin-flavored food that will feed their inner hermit is, of course, soup. JUS By Julie's Pumpkin Coconut Soup is the perfect way for Cancer to nourish their soul. And, because Cancer tends to be a worrier, they can take comfort in the knowledge that this soup is vegan, kosher, non-GMO, and gluten free, and not at all like the one mom used to make.

5Leo Likes Things Bright & Shiny

Look-at-me Leo loves to be the star of the show, so any pumpkin-flavored foods Leo eats must be worthy of sharing the stage with the them. "This sign of the Lion embodies an air of royalty, just like the kings and queens of the jungle," Tarot.com wrote. For Leo, nothing less than the best will do. This Godiva Pumpkin Spice Truffle Flight is both Instagram worthy, and delicious. "[They're] adorable to look at and even better to eat," Godiva noted on its website. "Our Foil-Wrapped Pumpkin Spice Truffles feature five luscious truffles crafted with pumpkin ganache in a milk chocolate shell."

6Virgo Is Searching For The Perfect Pumpkin Flavor

Nothing less than perfect will do for Virgo, so this sign is going to want something that is made with all-natural pumpkin flavors that also enhances the flavors of the rest of their meal. And, because Virgo is helpful, they'll make sure you have a perfect experience too. "This sign is one of service, helping itself and others to fine-tune their lives," according to Tarot.com. If Virgo is going to whip up a brilliant breakfast, only real maple syrup will do, and since 'tis the season for pumpkin, this handmade Pumpkin Spice Syrup, endorsed by Oprah, is the only thing to put on pancakes.

7Libra Only Eats Beautiful Food

Balance-seeking Libras love to surround themselves with beauty, and this extends to their meals as well. If it's not pretty it doesn't belong on their plate. "Beautiful both inside and out, Libra stands for harmony, equality, and grace," Tarot.com noted. For Libra, these Pumpkin, Maple, and Brandy Macaroons from Tout Sweet offer the perfect mix of flair and flavor that this sign craves. Because Libra is also the fairest of all the signs, they will definitely share their sweet pumpkin treats with you.

8Scorpio Wants Their Food To Inspire Passion

"Scorpio is passionate and intense, with a magnetic personality that draws us in. Sometimes it feels like they can see right into your soul," Tarot.com explained. If you never thought you'd use the words "pumpkin" and "cheese" in the same sentence, let alone try it, if it's offered to you by a Scorpio you'll likely indulge because they're so passionate about this strange and delicious combination. For Scorpio, this Montchevre Pumpkin Goat Cheese is definitely something to get excited about. Made in Wisconsin, the cheese is flavored with pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.

9Sagittarius Is A Serious Foodie

Sagittarius is always up for exploration and adventure, and food is no exception. "Sagittarius is driven by a constant need to explore and expand its mind, heart, and awareness to the fullest extent," Tarot.com noted. This sign will try anything once, no matter how bizarre it may sound. Sagittarius, please try Pumpkin Pie Spice Pringles and let everyone else know how they are. Because, let's be honest, you're the only sign brave enough to do it.

10Capricorn Needs Fuel Fast

"Classy and reserved, Capricorn likes to play hard, and work harder," Tarot.com explained. Because the Capricorn is always striving to succeed, they need foods that can help them reach their goals without slowing them down. To keep this sign at the top of their game, Capricorns should always carry protein bars so they can refuel at a moment's notice. And, these RXBAR Pumpkin Spice Whole Food Protein Bars are a perfect way for Capricorn to get a hit of pumpkin flavor while also getting the nutrients they need to succeed.

11Aquarius Wants To Spread The Love

"The worldly water-bearer is a progressive spirit who’s focused on the greater good," Tarot.com noted. Fiercely independent, Aquarius also likes to go their own way if their ideas differ from those of the group. Harry & David Pumpkin Butter is a great butter alternative for an Aquarius who is bored with traditional bread and pasta toppings. And, Aquarius doesn't care if you think it's weird to put pumpkin butter on their bagel, toast, or pasta.

12Pisces Wants Pure Pumpkin Magic

Pisces likes to get lost inside their own dream world where, perhaps, no pumpkin food is off limits. "With a soul as deep and vast as the oceans, Pisces thrives in a world of fantasy, where its imagination can flow freely," according to Tarot.com. All of that introspection can make a fish thirsty, so this Maine Root Pumpkin Pie Soda can keep Pisces hydrated while also giving them a sweet, carbonated kick so they can quickly refuel and go back to their fantasies.
