I use to be afraid of turkey bones because I tought that they would come in the middle of the night and take your skin, I had this fear for many years and still get a bit shivery around turkey bones, I'm currently 12 XP
When I was little, my grandpa would always tell me to be careful of eating bananas because they had bones. For the longest time, I would make my dad peel and cut up my bananas before I would eat them to make sure there were no bones for me to swallow.
While at a friend's house when I was about 7, we decided we wanted hot chocolate. We warmed up the milk and put in powdered baking chocolate because it was the closest thing to Swiss Miss we could find. However, after we tasted it we declared is was poisned because chocolate is supossed to be sweet. I believed for years this bitter chocolate meant certain death.
i used to think mushrooms made you shrink
I used to think that germs could somehow run faster that the speed of light, contaminating an object in an instant. So, I never ate off the floor, and if I picked something from the floor, I would go wash my hands.
We used to call pimento loaf (the one with the green olives in it), "hognose meat". I am not sure why, perhaps the cross-sections of the olives looked like a hog nose, I donno... But anyway, I used to believe that it was really made of hog noses. And now that I know what can actually go into processed meat, I am not so sure I was wrong...
My older sister told me that crisps that that dark mark/blemish on them were bad for "little boys" and ate them for my own safety. Bitch.
I'm sure I'm not the first to add this one, but my mom instilled in all of her children the insane fear that if you don't cook your pork until it's a piece of shoe leather, you'll get worms that eat through your brain.
i was 7 or 8 around the time but heres what happened.i was going to the local grocery store.in the title is said giant/drug store(giant is the name of the store).the only time ive ever heard the word drug was when our school teachers were telling us about cocaine and stuff,and didnt know the meaning of "drug" was a substance other than food that affects your body.So,i thought that the food at the store was filled with LSD or sumthing and refused to eat it!lol i was stupid
i used to beleive that bananas were evil
When I was young someone told me the the top part of the banana and the bottom part are poisonous and that you should never eat it or you will die. I always kinda believed this and always but the top and never ate the bottom. Im still a little skeptical about eatting the whole thing
I lived with my grandparents growing up and my grandma loved to bake. Every time she would make cookies, i would sneak dough out of the bowl before she baked them. Whenever I got caught my grandpa would tell me not to eat it because a tapeworm would grow in my stomach and that my worm would move around in my stomach to try and get out. It didnt scare me enough to not eat the dough, but then I would lie down with my hand on my stomach trying to feel the worm moving
i used to believe that is you ate too much red sause then you're blood would turn to red suase that would make your heart explode. i did't eat red sause for about 5years. my parents told me bout the red sause
I used to believe that drinking vinegar would turn you into a robot.
When I was about ten, a friend of mine, who was a few years older, and whose mother was a pediatrician, told me that if you eat ramen, it temporarily makes your stupider. She said she only ate ramen during summer break so that she'd be smart when she was at school. I seriously believed her for a few months, then I went back to eating ramen. Sometimes I can still feel it shutting down my brain when I eat it.
I vaguely remember in nursery during lunchtime one kid told me that most foods go down a tube into your stomach but sausages get stuck in your throat.
When I was little my dad told me won ton soup was made of monkey brains, It took me a long time to learn the truth. The soup still scares me.
i ised to love tomatoes until someone told me they turn your ears red I still can't eat a tomato today and I'm in my late twenties
I believd that if you ate popping candy and drank softdrink just afterwards your stomach would explode
I used to sneak into the kitchen and eat spoonfuls of sugar at night as a young child until my mum told me that if you did this, sugar worms would grow in your stomach and eat you up. I still make sure I don't put too much sugar in my coffee to this day...
