When I was four, my grandpa told me that soy sauce was made from bug juice when the bugs hit the car windsheild. I came to the conclusion that at night while we were sleeping, an evil man went around our neighborhood and scraped the bug juice off everyones windsheilds and put it in a jar to feed to people. To this day, I won't eat any food with soy sauce in it.

Traumatized!

When I was 4 ish I would not eat spinach. My parents would successfully get me to eat a few pieces if they told me that I could not grow up big and strong like Pop-Eye. After hearing this I would flex my muscles and take a bite, grimace, swallow, maybe, and quite vocally refuse to eat any more. My parents would then repeat the procedure.

I used to believe stuffing came directly from the cooked bird, and was really chicken and turkey guts. I was never allowed in the kitchen before the stuffing of the bird, which is what led to this belief. I wouldn't eat it at Thankgsgiving and made everyone sick when I told them what I thought of it

Just to be cruel, my brother told me that Rice Crispies where dried moth eggs/larva. I didn't eat Rice Crispies for several years.

When I was younger, I thought that Broccoli came from moss on a rock. I learned that this wasn't true when I tried to eat the moss . . . For the record it doesn't taste anything like broccoli.

My mom used to tell my brother and I that the meat in the hamburgers at Chinese restaurants was dragon meat. To this day I am still leary of chinese food.

When my sister and brother and I where younger our parents would make liver and onions for dinner not mentioning acutally that it was "LIVER". One day we asked them to make that good steak with the onions. To our suprise we had been eating liver and onions thinking it was steak and onions the whole time!

For as long as I can remember I have not liked onions. Since my daddy did he would always try to sneak them into my food. One day, I was about five, he made chicken and fried potatoes for me and mom. When I asked him if there were onions in it he looked me dead in the eye and said "eat 'em, they'll put hair on your butt". For the next few years of my life I checked my backside every night before bed just in case I accidentally ingested a piece of onion. To this day I wont even touch them. I am 23.

I used to think that pickles were made out of frog skin and corn was old peoples teeth.

When we both were young, I told my little sister that dirt tasted like chocolate Quik, the stuff you make chocolate milk with. She ate a whole handful before realizing her mistake.
