It is a classic spice blend that was very popular in the 1700s. It is cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, ginger, clove,  and mace. It was pretty much used in and on everything but it has mainly been used in pumpkin pie in the last 100 years or so.

Wait, do people think pumpkin spice has pumpkin in it?

Starbucks pumpkin spice has for years now because people were complaining there was no pumpkin in it.

You mentioned mace in the spice 

Mace is in some of the older recipes for it because it would bring out a bit of slap to all the other spices but isn't necessary for all the other spices to be considered 'pumpkin spice' when blended. Also, a lot of older recipes would try to make the most of everything they had because spices were a luxury so using mace and nutmeg at the same time was like having twice as many ingredients but only really paying for one thing. 

I think mace tastes like ass.

At no point was naruto used by millions of people to flavor everything from baked good to meat.

But would you really be surprised at the amount of random shit he's been put on for marketing?

I mean, seriously, when you can find Naruto on a ramen packet in NORTH DAKOTA, that's funny as hell. [ yes, it was at my favorite Asian grocery store but still...ND has ninja noodles :D ] .

I had a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks for the first time in two years today and . . . it just wasn't as good as I remember it being. Maybe having covid changed by taste buds for the better, lol

I do feel vaguely off that I can't even use it as a sort of quick seasonal celebration like I do with eggnog [ at least one carton during the eggnog season and I'm good for the rest of the year ] . Even the tiniest sample of a pumpkin spice frappe sends me to the bathroom for a ten pound insta-purge. 

Peppermint Mocha season on the other hand...
