Until I was about 6, I was afraid to eat Gushers because I thought it would turn my head into a fruit and I would be stuck like that.
When I went over to my friends house one day, I saw him eating nearly three packs of them. I screamed, "Don't you realize that your head is gonna turn into a giant fruit?"
He screamed and for the rest of the day we were throwing out all the packs in the house and trying to reverse the head transformations in various ways.
