It is a variety of pumpkin that is good for cooking and eating. The pumpkins we get for Halloween are generally not tasty eating.

Here is probably more than you want to know. http://www.liseed.org/rambl_cheesemoschata.html Butternut squash works really, really well. Good luck!

And congratulations on navigating the site! Welcome!
