I used to think that bath beads were candy until I bit into one! What a shock that it was soap!

I used to think that "Heath" chocolate toffee bars were actually "Health" bars. i didn't actually try one until i was about 16 and realized that they weren't healthy in the least bit!

I used to believe that my mother wouldn't notice when I opened a new pack of cookies, eat some of them, then rearrange the ones left in the package, and seal the package with some sellotape. Being a mom myself now, I know that it is impossible not to notice....

When I was younger my mom told me that if I ate raw sugar, that I would get worms. So I never ate raw suger until I was 15!

Remember those Fruit Gusher commercials? The ones where the kid popped the candy into his mouth, and his head morphed into a fruit? I used to believe that if I ate a Fruit Gusher, then my head would turn into a fruit. I was deathly afraid of those things.

My first taste of Gushers was when I was like nine. And I was very hesitant about it because I thought you could really turn into a fruit if you ate them. But I kept thinking "Okay come on that's ridiculous it can't be true" and I ended up eating them. The only problem with them is that they taste like dirt.

Feeling very anonymous today

When I was about five/sixish I would go to the dairy and only but the fruit shaped lollies, like strawberries and grapes, because I though that they were the healthy ones :)
