food

I used to believe…

When I was young I hated butter and insisted that all the bread/toast I ate was dry. I remember thinking that the toast was still quite "runny" and asked my dad if he'd put butter on it. He said no, it was only the "toast juice". I believed this for a very long time...

This is a take different take on the common belief about gushers.

When I was three, I was smart enough to know that gushers don't really turn your head into fruit. I ate them and nothing happened. However, once, in first grade, someone brought in gushers. One kid wondered if gushers really turned your head into fruit. I told him I ate them when I was three and nothing happened. Then that kid said that you have to be older like the kids in the commercials for it to work!

When I was very young my parents were poor. My mom would often add extra water to juice to "make it go further". One day I poured 1/2 a glass of milk and filled it the rest of the way with water. YUCK! My Dad made me drink it to teach me a lesson.

I thought those Japanese guys who made food in front of you at restaurants were robots. There was no way any human being could flip knives around like that and make fire appear from their fingers. I think I might have asked one of them if they were once.

I used to believe…

When eating oranges, sometimes I would accidentally swallow a pip - then I would be terrified that an orange tree was going to grow inside of me - and leafy branches would soon start to come out of my ears, mouth and eyes.

When i was little i used to believe that drinking Mountain Dew would result it being both extremely hyper and extremely bored to the point that all you could do is sit around the house screaming "I'M BORED!!! I'M BORED!!! I'M BORED!!!! I'M BORED!!!! at the top of your lungs...

I used to believe…

When I was little, i used to believe that "vanilla" was pronounced "funilla" and that you were only allowed to eat vanilla ice cream when you were having ALOT of fun or else they wouldn't let you order any, so whenever my parents took me out to get ice cream i always exaggerated my mood so i could order "funilla"...

when i was little, we drove by this bank. it was called the union bank. well i misread it and i thought it said the onion bank. so i asked my mom and my older sister about it. they told me(they didnt think i would belive them) that it was where people went to put all theyre onions. so i thought that onions were like money and would hoard them and like hide them in my room(it started to smell weird). i also had strange dreams about people putting onions in safet deposit boxes. it took me a long time to realize how wrong i was.

Up until I was like 15, I always thought pasturized milk meant you took the bucket of milk and put it in a pasture for a couple of days....

Learned the truth in chem. class.

I must have been about 6 the first time i heard someone use the phrase "human being", but of course, to me it sounded like "human bean". I panicked because i liked beans and wondered which ones came from humans. I asked my cousin who was about 14, and he told of that kidney beans came out of human kidneys. I don't think i ate chili for about 5 years.

I use to think ketchup was kat blood because my Dad called it cat soup.Sometimes he would call it cat blood but usually cat soup.

When my brother was young like 3-10 he would only eat Chicken,hamburger,bacon.If anyone said he was eatting meat he would scream and cry.He said never eats meat,only chicken,hamburgers.We still tease him now about it.LOL You also never said he was eatting a cow if we had hamburgers that night

I used to believe…

When I was little, I had asked my Aunt for a glass of water around midnight. She told me that she wouldn't get it, because if she opened the refrigerator door, the light from the fridge would go on, and wake up the food, because it was alive. For the longest time, I really thought that the food was alive, and would refuse to open the fridge at night. Little did I know, that she just didn't want to get up.

When i was a kid, i used to believe that there were worms in my sphaghetti, after reading the book The Twits, by Roald Dahl

I used to believe…

People in my family often talk about going on sabbatical-- they plan ours, they talk about other people going on sabbatical, etc. When I was little it was very confusing to hear people say this big word, and I came to the conclusion that it was actually "spaghattical" and whenever someone said it I would picture Italian pasta.

I used to believe…

When I was around 4 - 5 years , I used to eat lots of cookies. My mom fed with my habit told me i will become really really fat if I continue to eat lot of cookies.

One day , I saw a pregnant women and i cried out loudly to her - "I know what u did to get so fat"
