I used to believe that the restaurant Wataburger was really spelled and pronounced "Waterburger". That then led me to believe that they used water in the making of their burger patties which made their hamburgers taste really plain. It wasn't until my parents stopped buying me regular hamburgers that I relized my myth wasn't true.
