"Pumpkin" flavored whatever. They mostly don't have any pumpkin flavor, they're "pumpkin PIE SPICE flavored".
Lavender in anything. Ugh.
We had a chain around, Perkins, that started eons ago as a pancake place then got more dinerish. For one or two years, they had pumpkin pancakes in the fall, and they were SOOOO good. But then the next year, they were simply regular pancakes with pumpkin pie spice.

I wonder why places do this. It's not like a can of pumpkin isn't cheap and easy. Maybe most people don't actually like the "pumpkin" part?
My wife always gets 'medium-rare' when she gets steak, I get 'medium' or 'medium well' myself. The other day I had some of her rarer steak and it tasted awful. Like it had gone off. And I mean this wasn't someone's backyard BBQ or a food stall at a market, that was a $30 piece of meat.
I think the truth is that with meat, the amount of faith you need to put into the operation that purchased, stored, prepared and cooked it grows directly in relation to the amount of time that meat will spend on the grill or in the oven i.e. the shorter that time the more faith you need.
Unfortunately, we do not always know just how good the operation behind those kitchen doors is. Price level or 'fanciness' is not a 100% reliable measure. Even previous experience can be misleading. I've eaten at this restaurant dozens of times without incident.
