Ah. Pumpkins may not be composed of fat, but they certainly can utilize fats for propulsion.

The propulsion system itself is interesting and is more or less based on actually catabolic effenciency. Proteins and Carbs produce about the same amount of energy per gram, but proteins generate more "pollution", hence why proteins are the lowest available engine. Carbs are plentiful and easily broken down so I made them the most extensive engine available. Fats provide lots of energy per gram so I made them the top of the propulsion tree.
