    HELP! Can I eat my pumpkin?

    I bought a whole butternut pumpkin at my local farmers market on the weekend from a known and trusted seller (if you get a dud, for example, he replaces it for free the next week)

    I just lopped it open, for gnocchi with roasted pumpkin, spinach and tomato (yum!)
    But the seeds are not lovely and beige, they are quite dark. It's not furry inside or anything, but the seeds are darker than any I have ever seen, and there's a few smaller looking dark dots around the place.

    Can I still eat it? If so, all of it? Or should I just have the top half that doesn't have the seeds in it?

    Even if I just boil it up in a vegie soup?

    Anyone?
