When i was little, mad cow disease worried my mum and she never let me eat beef until i was about 9. Because i wasn't allowed it, i assumed i was allergic to it, and told everyone i was allergic to beef. once, my dad gave me a "beef" tomato to eat and i wouldnt eat it until he explained that it didnt have beef in it!
