Split pumpkin/squash/zucchini.

Pumpkin and squash are carbs, zucchini is not, we don't think.

I filled this poll out with two friends who are type 2 diabetic.

Zucchini is a squash, so are pumpkins.

All squashes are fruit because they have seeds in them just like tomatoes and cucumbers. They do have some carbohydrates but I would not classify them as such, certainly not as high as grains and tubers (potatoes).
