When I was little I didnt know anything about the digestive system so I thought when you ate food it would all just fill up from your feet to your head.
I thought that when you threw up it meant that the food was filled up past your head.
I thought that fat people were just people that use to be skinny but they ate so much that they filled up to their heads abnd just expanded.
