A childhood belief about eating

when i was a kid i used to put anything i saw in my mouth.one day it was raining and my mom, my brother and i were standing in the garden where i saw a candy wrapper and kept it in my mouth. my mom told me if i didn't spit it out there would be all kinds of worms in my tummy.i was so scarred i started jumping up and down screaming GET 'EM OUT!! GET 'EM OUT !! i jumped because i thought that way they won't eat me from inside. never put anything beside food in my mouth since.
