When I was young, I was told by my dentist about "tartar" on my teeth. For years, I believed that "tartar" sauce was made from the tartar dentists scraped off your teeth and I absolutely refused to eat it.

Learning about chemical reactions made me worried that my mom would mix the wrong things together when cooking and make some kind of poison. I refused to eat anything she made without a recipe until I was in third or fourth grade, and I was terrified that she would accidentally kill herself with her strange cakes.

I used to believe that the chip bags where always only half full because, the people who worked there always tryed to sneek chips and some times they got to them that's why they were always half full.

When I was very little I had made a dangerous habit of eating the mushrooms that grew out of the front lawn no matter how many people told me I could die. However, one day while munchin one down, a huge BOOM erupted behind the houses on the other side of the street and a HUGE black cloud flew into the sky (we lived in a bad neighborhood near a train track so maybe it crashed or maybe a meth lab exploded, idk). I had somehow connected the mushrooms with the explosion thinking god was pissed or that that's what happened when you ate mushrooms. I ran inside the house and never ate another shroom again. (well, only recently have I started having them on my pizza) :P

OK!!! so when I swallowed my 1st peice of gum i was TERRIFIED because I thought it would come out the same way it was when i swallowed it like gushy and crap! i was scared. So then I thought that whenever you swallowed a peice of gum u would poop it out and it would be all gushy and chewed on. It was pretty nasty but then I asked my sister about it and she said no it stays in ur stomach for 7 years then I started to believe that.
NOW i dont know what 2 believe in anymore.

As a child I used to think that if you swallowed seeds from any kind of fruit or vegetable, a plant would begin to grow from your stomach and grow so big that it would soon kill you. This resulted in many painstaking hours sifting through meals to remove anything that resembled a seed.

This doesn't really count as a belief, but reading someone's Roman Coke story, it reminded me of this... You know when you order something at a restaurant and the waitress/waiter asks you if you'd like a soup or salad? Up until I was about 8 or 9 I always thought (s)he was offering a "super salad". I figured it our the day I was asked if I'd like a soup or salad and I simply sad, "yes, please".
