Mormons ate Miracle Whip. Catholics ate mayonnaise. This was one of many differences between the 2 religions I noticed growing up in Salt Lake City.

I beleived that macaroni was made from 'crow knees' - they took the skin off the bird's legs and that was macaroni.

I used to believe that black and white animals i.e, pandas, penguins, zebras, white tigers, etc. were the ones God had forgotten to color in his coloring book.
I used to belive that BBQ Ribs came from humans. When my older sister and dad ate them i closed my eyes, thinking of the person who gave up a rib for them to eat. I though all the way till i was 12!
At one time, I believed that Satan's true form was that demonic dog from Looney Toons (the red one with the powerful voice and horns.)
