Ginger or No Ginger in Pumpkin Pies Fights Split Town
An old tale from Liverpool features Adintron Tompkins and Moses Wheeler clashing over ginger in pumpkin pies. The feud escalates from a barter at the post office to church quarrels, bitter debates, and the pair’s decline into feeble health. After years of dispute, a fatal stroke strikes Moses, followed by Admiron's dying wish to meet Moses in heaven, ending a town that divided over a simple spice.
