i used to think if you ate a watermelon seed then after a while you'd become a watermelon

You know miracle whip? Well when I was a kid I totally thought that miracle whip was like anything else. Like peanut butter and jelly you spread it on bread and eat it... which meant I ate it alone of course.

Thats what I thought it was by the time I was getting to be ten, I figured out it was for putting on other things to make it taste better.

Blaaaah. ].[

I used to believe…

When we were younger i told my little brother (5 years younger than me) that beef burgers were made from beef and human brain! he believed me for years and even to this day my family still call them 'brain - burgers'!

i am so weird, I used to think that oranges and other fruits had feelings, and that scientists just hadn't discovered it yet, and it hurt the fruits when their skin was cut with knives. thats why i thought the apples would turn brown. I refused fruit for a long while. my mama thought i was crazy. she still does, actually.

I used to believe…

pregnant women got the big stomachs from eating watermelon seeds

I used to believe…

When i was young, my parents would have after-eight mints on special occasions, when people would come round for dinner. I was told that the box had a mechanical device on it, not allowing the box to open until after eight o'clock. and my bedtime was half seven!
i finally figured this out aged 18 years!!! oops!

I thought that salt made your food cool, because after you salted it, whatever it was always cooled off. Simple cause and effect.

I used to believe yeast could make bread rise because it really was salt with bubbles inside.

I used to believe…

when i was litle my mother said that if I swallow chewing gums they will be atached to my stomach, and then I imagine the walls of my stomach full of different colors and tastes.

I used to think that all Swedish Fish were fish flavored, except for the green ones, those are lettuce flavored. I was always disgusted as to why Swedish people flavored candy like fish and lettuce instead of just eating fish and lettuce (btw I hate fish and lettuce). No one could get me to eat Swedish Fish until I was 14 (I turned 14 a few weeks ago) and now when I buy Swedish Fish at the store I try not to get a lot of the "lettuce flavor". Now I love Swedish Fish.

I used to believe…

Around the age of six I went through a phase of believeing that sausages were the amputated and cooked limbs of a particular animal, a sort of miniature elephant. This really put me off eating them, especially with tomato sauce.

when i was little i thought coco pops were all friends so i had to convince them with my brain not to worry and that they'd all be with their friends when they got to my tummy!

I used to believe…

When I was little, I used to think that the soda machines in restaurants were hooked to pipes that came directly from the factory. The first time I encountered one that had run out, I was confused, but then I said, "Oh! The factory must be closed." Naturally, everyone else had no idea what I meant.

I used to believe…

when i was little i knew that breast milk came from breasts, but i thuoght it was de-hydrated milk powder, and you had to drink lots of water to get milk.And i thought it was the same stuff that came in gallons at the store, and the inside of dandelions.

i used to beliveve if you planted skittles it would grow to be a skittle tree like on comercials so i would plant them and wait and wait until one day the rain washed up the skittles and they were all disgusting so i statred to think they were at the end of the rainbow but now i know better

i was told when i was little if u swallow gum it would stay there for 7 years and i would have a gum tree in my tummy which would grow and make me really tall and i would never stop growing
