When i was a kid, my father had me believing in the spaghetti tree, which resembled a willow tree but it was spaghetti that hung down and got cut off at harvest time. This i bought, lock stock and barrel, and was thoroughly confused when we were shown some old faked documentary showing the spaghetti being harvested in the fields in Italy!
