Summer is great and all, but there are some things it just doesn't have. There's no football, no chilly nights, and certainly no crunchy, colorful leaves on the ground. Autumn has all of these things and more, including some of the most delicious fall food and drinks you can ever imagine.

Fall has it all, I tell you. The last of the summer produce is still in season while the autumn crops are being sold at grocery stores and farmers markets everywhere. It's just cold enough to start enjoying some of your favorite pumpkin-flavored foods, too. In case you're not convinced, here are 25 mouthwatering fall pictures that will make you want to break up with summer ASAP.

1. You can't enjoy a fall classic like pumpkin pie in the summer.
