food

I used to think that grits were worms... my mom told it to me, and to this day she deny's it... but I know she did........

When I was little, I was watching Barney, and one of the little girls told a story about a boy who ate noodles so much, he turned into a giant noodle (i think they were trying to teach kids not to be afraid of trying new foods). After that I refused to eat noodles, thinking I would accidently eat a kid who had turned into one.

When my little brother was younger he asked me and my older brother what we were eating, we told him we were eating the red soap from the bathroom when in actual fact we were eating red gummy lip sweets. Next thing we knew my brother was eating the good soap that my mum didnt even like us to use o.0

The Mrs. Butterworth syrup bottle used to freak me out when I was little! I thought she could talk, so everytime we went past her in the grocery store, I'd back as far away as possible!

i used to think the red wax that covered baby bel cheese was gum

i was about 5 or 6 when my mother would take my brothers and i to the grocery store, they once told me that if i touched an eggplant i would turn into one. And after that i was always afraid to touch it. Now that i am older...i laugh at myself when i see an eggplant but wont touch it

For years I was confused about the slogan, "Leggo my Eggo". I thought it might have something to do with Lego blocks, but I could not understand any connection they would have with waffles, or why there were no Lego blocks included with the waffles. It was only when I was about 12 that I suddenly realized that "Leggo" was an abbreviated version of "Let go".

Spaghettis grow on trees.

when I was little, I thought If I ate a watermelon seed, then a watermelon would grow in my stomach!!

when i was little i thought that grilled cheese sandwiches were called 'girl cheese sndwiches', so i would always scream "No, i want boy cheese sandwiches!" when my dad asked me if i wanted some grilled cheese sandwiches.

i used to think that i could cook food on the furnice register...and there were hotdogs all over my room, and some of them were like moldy...and my brother told me that the boogyman would stop stealing my toys if i smeared peanut butter all over my toys, so i did, and i got in trouble, but i was only 3 so you can't blame me... ;)

When i was little, my dad told me not to run with a lollypop in my mouth because a boy did that and it got stuck down his throat. the boy did it again, and it also got stuck down his throat and they called him walrus boy forever after.

When I was little my father always told me if I was to eat anything green it would turn my cheeks green... I recently found out the reason he told me this ... SO I wouldn't eat it and mom wouldn't cook it just for herself (selfish man) Just b/c he didn't like it. lol ... I never aquired a taste for "green" foods and rarely eat them now.

my parents always told me carrots were good for your eyes. somehow i misinterpreted that to mean that if you didnt eat carrots, you'd go blind. i always believed my eyesite got dim before dinner, then afterwards was repelenished. i also worried that if i didn't eat an even amount of carrots, one eye would be better than the other, so i always ate an even amount and chewed them on different sides of my mouth so each eye was the same.

When I was young I used to believe that if you took an asprin and drank a coke real fast you'd get drunk. I never knew anyone daring enough to try it.

Whenever I ate an orange seed I would cry and cry because I believed that an orange tree would grow out of my mouth from my stomach. I was all the more scared because orange trees have spiky branches. My mum said that if I was a good boy, the seed would die, needless to say, I was at my best behaviour until I believed the seed had died.
