For a very long time my mom had my brother and me convinced that if we ate the seeds in grapes, they would germinate in our stomachs and a tree would grow out of our mouth with branches and leaves out of our ears.

I used to believe that if you swallowed the pits from the fruit you were eating, it would grow into a fruit tree in your stomach and eventually kill you by bursting. I still swallowed my pits tho just to see.

Up until I was 15 I thought that eating orange seeds would make an Orange Tree grow up inside your tummy. I got so scared when I accidentally swallowed one that I didn't drink water for days because I didn't want it to "grow."

when i was really really young i accidentally swallowed a orange seed and so i ran to my older sister crying and i asked her what to do and she told me that an orange tree would start growing in my stomach and that freaked me out a lot...lmaoo that one stuck with me for like a year or 2 more and i was so cautious with eating stuff that had seeds in them

I used to believe that if I swallowed the pips from fruit that a tree would grow in my stomach and the branches would grow out of my ears, I used to have nightmares every time I swallowed a pip, I have never actually grown a tree in my stomach.

My mum used to tell me that if I accidentally swallowed an apple pip or cherry stone, that a tree would grow out of my ears. Only a couple of years ago, I realised why I got a horrible feeling of dread whenever I ate a pip!!
