A type of jack o'lantern made only in Michigan. The face is carved into a parsnip instead of a pumpkin. It's kind of creepy. Also called a 'Gander Jack.
Basically a Michigander Jack o' lantern. It is a Jack O' Lantern carved from a parsnip instead of a pumpkin. The original jack o lantern in the folklore was a parsnip so it continues the tradition. Sometimes the leftover parsnip trimmings are used to make Pastys which are a regional dish
I carved some 'GanderJacks with my parents last weekend. Our porch is looking very festive now and we made some kick ass Pastys
