I used to believe that Chapstick tasted the way it smelled. So, I used to eat the chapstick, especially the strawberry-smelling kind, and once at camp I had some that was mint-flavored. So I told my friend my chapstick theory, and then I took a bite out of the chapstick...I immediately learned that my theory was really really wrong, and I never made that mistake again.
