I used to belive that the Mexican dish, Flan, was made out of phlegm.

Our family travelled from Texas to Ohio a few times a year, and often passed large fields that grew hay. In the fall the hay would be gathered into huge round wheels and wrapped in huge white plastic bags. As we passed fields full of these huge white round things, my dad told us they were marshmallow farms, and I used to wonder how they chopped up those HUGE marshmallows into smaller ones we bought in the store.

When eating a chicken dinner on a Sunday afternoon at home, my two brothers always got the legs so I ate one too. Only I ate the neck thinking it was a leg until my older brother asked me, "how many legs does a chicken have?" I then realized I wasn't eating a leg!

When I was young my dad once told me that turkeys were baby elephants that would then make a cocoon and come out as a 'real' elephant. He also said that that because people ate so many turkeys the number of elephants was dwindling. after that my mother could never get me to eat any kind of poultry.

I use to believe that marbles were eatable.

my friend was eating ice cream, and she had a scoop of mint and a scoop of chocolate. when she was done, she mixed it all up and it looked like only chocolate, and gave it to her little brother. the next day, their mom found him crying because he couldn't make his mint ice cream turn into chocolate when he stirred it around!

When i was little i allways got the kids chicken nugget meal. One day my babysitter took me and another little boy to McDonalds. I ordered my usual and he convinced me that the Sweet and Sour sauce was made from cow boogers...Yea i switched to burgers from then on. And now that i am an adult [ i of course understand its not made out of boogers ] but if i ever get sweet and sour sauce i always think of what that kid told me. And i kind of get disgusted..he has traumatized me for the rest of my life lol

Traumatized By Sweet & Sour Sauce

My sister and I used to believe that our babysitter was a witch and she hid a baby in our cupboard. Then she did a horrible spell to make the little baby pee. The pee we thought was what she used as juice in our Ramen Noodle Soup.

Although we truely believed this, we loved that soup and begged for it every time she watched us!

i used to believe that girls only liked candy that was colored pink or purple...and boys didn't like the flavor because it was girl colors...so they only ate candy that was blue, green, yellow or orange

when my friend was little, her father told her that a haggis was in fact a small animal that roamed the hills of Scotland, rather than a meal. She believed this for a very long time...

I thought if you found a really long fry in your Happy Meal, you could turn it into McDonald's for money.

When I was little, I used to believe that anything that was "sugar-free" or "diet" would give you diarrhea, cause I thought the symbol used for those things looked like a toilet flushing.

i work with kids and this one little girl thought that Friday was called Friday because that was the day you were suppose to fry food

when i was little i used to think french fries were called anch fries .....i guess i heard my mom wrong when she told me what they were, therefor i went around ordering anch fries everywhere for the longest time

my aunt told me that if i put a pickle seed in the ground that it would grow into a pickle tree, so my best friend and I planted one and waited for the longest time for our pickle tree to grow .....needless to say, it never grew

My parents convinced my sister that haggis was a scottish creature. There were two types of haggis. The low-land haggis was long and thin with short legs so they could hide in rabbit holes when being hunted. The highland haggis was round and fat with the left hand legs longer than the right. The reason for this was so the haggis could stand on the side of hills comfortably and the way you would catch them is by chasing them from in front so that they'd turn around and fall over and two men would be waiting at the bottom of the hill with nets to catch them.

Around the age of six, I got a piece of gum stuck in my hair... my mom got it out using peanut butter. This made me jump to the conclusion that peanut butter was NOT a food, but gum-remover. I was shocked to see my best friends eating 'hair remover' sandwiches at lunch the next day...
