Snakes in the bread!! One time I opened a loaf of bread and there was a hole that went through a couple of slices, about dime size "air holes"..my older brother told me there was a snake in the bread...I didnt eat it and would not go near any holy bread for years!!

When I was about 6 years old, I was eating a pop-ice (a cheap brand of popsicle) in front of my 18 year old brother. My brother proceeded to tell my Father (in front of me) a story about a kid in Tennessee who ate one of those pop-ices and drank a 20 ounce bottle of Pepsi and his stomach exploded.

I believed that story until about 5 years later.

I used to believe that when I ate porrige, i had to hide the buttereye in the middle so that the fox would not take it. Just to be safe, i locked to door too.

When I was about 2 my cousin who was about 9 told me that if I ate the pointy ends of french fries, I would choke on them and die instantly. I now know that isn't true after a humiliating incident and swallowing one without biting off the end first and told everyone I was dying and to call 911. I still can't break the habit of breaking off the ends of the fries. Man I love my cousin.

When I was young my Grandma told me that eating to many pickled onions would stunt my growth. So I was frightened to death of touching them, because I was only 3 foot at the time and did not what to stay that way. Everything has worked out I am 6.1 and love eating pickles. My idea is that I don’t want to grow any taller, so I must be safe to eat then now. Thanks Granny

When I was about 5 yrs old, a friend told me to never eat the ends of a banana because that is where the tarantula layed its eggs. Horrified, that no one else knew about this but us, I would diligently cut the ends off before consuming. Now, 27 years later after I learned it wasn't true, I'm still cutting off the ends out of habit. Hey, you never know.

When I was a kid there were these candies called pop rocks. My friends and i believed that if you didn't let them finish popping in your mouth they would make your stomach explode.

My older brother once convinced me that the ice that sometimes forms in the fridge was poisonous, and that I would die in 24 hours if I ate it. This was directly after I'd eaten some.

I was in hysterics for, ooh, i dunno...about...24 hours?


The next day I went up to my brother and said "HAH, I'm NOT dead, you were WRONG!"

He laughed at me. Not the reaction I was looking for.

My mother raised us with healthy attitudes toward food, and by the time I was five I knew that you should only eat things such as candy once in a while, but I had never ever heard a food called "bad." However, there were these TV commericals for so-called healthy cookies that said "all the flavor, none of the guilt." I could not figure out why someone would feel guilty for eating, so I concluded there was an entire class of bad (as in evil, not as in unhealthy) foods that it was sinful to eat. But because I'd never heard of any foods in my house being "bad", I also believed that those sinful foods weren't available at the store where we shopped. So every time I saw a store painted a color I didn't like, or kept in a bad state of repair, I thought that was a "bad food store."

Still not guilty
