food

I used to believe that if you ate the crusts off bread, your hair would get curly, since that's what my mum said. I would meticulously peel the crusts off when she wasn't looking because I wanted my hair to stay straight, but obviously it didn't work as my hair is now curly.

I used to think Pineapples grew out of palm trees...and i thought the round stubby trees were overgrown pineapples. weird.

I used to believe…

When I Was Little I Used To Think That "Shredded Wheat" was called Squirrels....I Dunno Why But For the register we had to say a cereal and i said squirells and everyone sat there and laughed at me and i didnt have the slightest clue why....

I used to believe…

Since I liked to eat pickles so much, my parents had me convinced I'd grow up into a pickle. I'm older now and not green though.

To make me stop drinking from the bottle, my grandma told me that if I kept doing it that I would turn into the Incredible Hulk. I didn't drink milk for three years.

When I was little my Dad asked my mum what was for tea that day. She replied Faggots and I said you never say Soddit and Faggot because they are rude words. I think I meant Sod it or F**k it

i used to believe that i should not eat apple seeds in case they grew inside me.

This belief is now something of a family tradition.

My mother, who was never the greatest of chefs, told me (and all my siblings) when i was small that if i didn't eat all my supper, "the children who eat poo" would come & get me.

The children who eat poo are a bunch of naughty children who also wouldent eat thier supper & now live on the streets with nothing to eat but poo! They were like a gang of poo eating street punks.

as my mother was a self employed courier sometimes when i was in the car with her she would point to dumpsters & say thats where the children who eat poo live.

needless to say, washing the dishes in our house was never a big chore...we practically licked them clean.

I used to think that if I didn't eat food for a long time I would fall apart into pieces. I stopped believing it at 7 years because I found out its not possible.

I used to believe…

When I was younger I would always chew my gum and swallow it. My aunt told me that there was this thing in my throat and when I swallowed my gum it would get stuck there. She also sayed that it stayed there for 7 years. I really thought that every time i swallowed gum it was there for 7 years and it just kept building up and i would die cause all my food would not go down my throat.

I used to believe…

When I was about six, my dad told me hot dogs were cow lips. I believed him. For years. Now I know better....

there are plenty of other cow parts in there, too.

I thought when you chew gum and you swallot it you would choke and die o_o

When I was little I used to think that when you ate food that it would just keep building up inside your body. Like, when you first ate, it would go to your toes and keep going up to your leg, exc. exc.

I used to believe…

When i was little i used to think brocclie (sp?) were little trees and I would shake the before i ate them just incase there was a birds nest in there.

I've always liked Quaker products... oh so yummy. But when I first moved to the U.S. they called it by another name. I wasn't sure how you pronounced it but I thought it sounded like 'Quacker' like a duck quacking. Until 5th grade I learned how to pronounce it.

I used to think that mushrooms came from where the Smurfs lived and sometimes I'd wonder if anyone had ever picked up a smurf and packed it in a punnet of mushrooms by mistake and used to see if I could find one. I'd look very closely because I knew the smurfs were small!
