When I was fairly young, I got it into my head that pepperoni was some kind of vegetable. I think I read somewhere that vegetarians kids liked pizza, which of course to an eight year old means pepperoni. I asked my mom about it, and she, being funny, said, "Sure pepperoni grows on trees." I believed her (still not quite sure how I ended up being considered "gifted") I am ashamed to say I was probably about 12 or 13 before I figured it out.
