“How do you cure someone with a pumpkin spice addiction?”/“Apply the pumpkin patch.”

A pumpkin “patch” (where pumpkins grow) is not the same as a nicotine “patch” (used for nicotine replacement therapy), but there have been several jokes. “‘@timhawkinscomic: I started using a pumpkin patch to kick my addiction to pumpkin.’ Does that work for Pumpkin Spice Latte?” was posted on Twitter on October 28, 2012. “Wait so a ‘pumpkin patch’ isn’t like a nicotine patch for white girls and their pumpkin spice addiction?” was posted on Twitter on October 21, 2014.

“How do you fix a cracked pumpkin?”/“With a pumpkin patch” is a similar riddle.
