food

I used to believe…

My Mom works at a pre-school. My sister and I always go with her and one day when we went, we were eating air heads. All the little kids crouded around us wanting candy. We told them that if they ate an air head then their head woud turn into a balloon. After class, there were two little twin boys, their Mom was late to pick them up so my sister gave them each an airhead candy. One of them took a bite and his brother freiked out that his head was going to blow up like a balloon and go to outer space. Then both of them started to freik out. I felt so bad. But my sister said that they can eat them because she got permission from the air head on the wrapper. I will never forget that :3

I used to believe…

When I was a child I wasn't allowed white bread, only brown bread. My mum was always going on about white bread being full of sugar and that I wouldn't grow properly if I continuously ate "rubbish like that." At the time, I took that to mean that if you ate white bread you'd never grow, at all, and that you'd be a child for the rest of your life; stay small for ever.

My great grandma used to make homemade bread. She used to tell us that if you ate the raw dough ( ew but when your a kid you try anything) it would expand till your stomach exploded!

I used to believe that burritos were animals, so when we had burritos for lunch at my school, I'd cut it with a fork and show my meat sauce covered fork to the other boys and go "YAAAAAAAAH!!! DISEMBOWELMENT!!!" And they'd freak out.

I used to believe…

One time when I was little, I went to the grocery store with my Mom and she saw an egg plant and she was jokeing around and said "Look baby!! Its an alien" Well ofcourse I belived her. She bought two. Your thinking I was scared of the eggplant. WRONG! When we got home, I asked if I could look at the eggplant. I took it into myy room and I dressed it up in cabage patch doll cloth and put it in my stroler and I strolled it around the house. My Mom always had to take the egg plants when they got old and she would switch them out. lol
I would also not talk to my perants after they ate egg plant. I got very upset!

when i was little my mom used to tell me if you eat food before you go to sleep you will have nighmares

i used to think the water tower was filled with milk

I always believed that whenever i swallowed apple seeds by mistake, a tree will grow in my stomach. I was stuck with my belief till i took the science lesson related to stomach acids:)

my grandma used to tell me that butter was fat so i thought it was literally fat(lard). didnt believe it was made from milk til like 7th grade.

I used to believe…

One day, I was chewing gum, (I love to do that, especially mint-flavored) and I swallowed it. I went to my Mom and told her that. She said that I shouldn't do that, so I started to believe when I was little that if you chewed gum and swallowed, it would clog up and stop you from breathing. I only stopped this belief lately, when I took my 5th grade SAT and swallowed gum all through the week.

I used to believe…

My daughter thought milk was cow pee because it came from between the cows hind legs

I believed that chocolate milk must have been cow diarrihea......makes since to me

I used to believe…

when i was like kindergarten or first grade i belived that ketchup was made by blood. because that is what my older sister told me. so i believed that. i thought whenever we got a new bottle of ketchup at home that my parents killed someone. so i would run away to my room and cry until dinner. i still don't eat ketchup to this day. even though i know it comes from tomatoes.
also i thought honey came from girl's pee. because one time my parents went shopping and then we came home and my mom went to the bathroom the came out and put the honey bottle-jar thing away so i asked her what she did and she sayed she peed so i dont eat honey either.
last, lol, i thought apple juice came from boy's pee. because we went camping i did not know my parents brought apple juice along. there was no bathrooms there so my dod took a walk so he could pee and when he went i saw him leave but when he came back i was in the tent. i got out of the tent and saw him pouring APPLE JUICE!!! i was like ewwwwwwww. then eventually i learned that apple juice came from apples and sugar and more stuff but i was totally grossed out bye those three things!!!
