I couldn't believe it when my father told me that eggs were baby chickens. I was so horrified that I actually hallucinated while watching him calmly continue eating scrambled eggs, and saw a fluffy chick pop up on his fork right before he put it into his mouth. "NOOOooo!" I cried. He looked annoyed. I firmly believed that this had actually happened until I was about 13, at which point my "scientific" explanations for the phenomena were wearing pretty thin.
