Default canned pumpkin: Libby's vs One Pie

What I used was a squash I don't remember ever seeing in the US. I got a
small portion of it and it still weighed a lot. It's scalloped, huge and
just the orange side of red. I rarely get much choice of squash when I go
to the vegetable martket. The organic market sometimes has Japanese
squashes for high prices, but I don't see the poi8nt for ravioli or pie.
