The best pumpkin in Japan?

What kind of pumpkin do you like? I like to buy Kaseda Pumpkin from Kagoshima. It has a lot of flavor and can be used for both savory and sweet dishes. Some types of pumpkin can be dry, or the opposite, watery. Kaseda Pumpkin is a good texture.

I usually try to support local farmers, but if you compare Edosaki Pumpkin (from near Tsukuba) and Kaseda Pumpkin, I'm sure you'll agree that the Kaseda one is better :)
