I convinced my two younger sisters of this one. We were at a chinese restaurant, admiring the huge tropical fish in their fish tank. I told them that they were "moo goos" and if you ordered "Moo Goo Gai Pan", you got to pick out which fish you wanted to eat.
They cried, feeling sorry for the beautiful fishies.
