For some reason anytime said the name of a neighbouring town I saw the Parkay butter tub in my mind

I used to believe…

On Thanksgiving, my three-year-old cousin dropped a bit of his turkey, crying out, "Oh no! I dropped my chicken!" When I told him it was turkey, he responded with, "No, it's only turkey on the outside! On the inside it's chicken!"

This may be my older cousins fault, for mistaking the turkey for chicken herself and referring to it as such. Either way, it was the cutest thing I've ever heard in my entire life.

This is really crazy, but my sister told me that pie was made from kittens. I refused to eat it until I was 24. I think it was so she could eat all of my pie on Thanksgiving

I used to believe…

When my sister was 4, she knew that frozen dinners always had a picture of the enclosed meal on the cover of the box. She would then choose her meals accordingly. Being a rotten older brother, I snuck a non-food box into the freezer on a night in which we were to choose our own dinners. I selected enchiladas, then handed baby sis a box from the freezer. Hers had a picture of 2 fluffy, wide eyed KITTENS on the front. She was horrified and refused to eat ANYTHING that night. Later, mom asked me why there was a jigsaw puzzle in the freezer and why sis hadn't eaten dinner.

I've read a lot beliefs to do with 'salt and pepper cancelling each other out', well, I had a similar one.
Aged about....4 or 5....I had the belief that salt and sugar cancelled each other out, as a sugar lover I would eat some (in handfuls), then eat salt right after (in handfuls) so that they would cancel each other out and (technically) I wouldn't have eaten anything.
It took me several months to devise the 'ingenious' idea of eating the salt FIRST so that it's nasty taste would be taken away by the sugar. It took many more years for me to realise that my idea was wrong. I was a dumb kid (I once tried to make peanut butter by chewing up a handful of peanuts and some butter- that's how they make it, right?).

I used to believe…

My cousin told me that pistachio ice-cream was made of worms and shoelaces

I used to believe…

When we went out to a Chinese or Japanese restaurant, my uncle would always order fillet mignon. Well, I always misheard it as "Flaming Yon". I assumed it was some kind of super spicy Asian dish... It wasn't until recently that I learned it was merely steak.

I used to believe…

When I was younger, my dad would tell me the Heath bars were adult candy, and I believed him. On Halloween I would always give them to him. I thought they were poisonous to children. I believed this until I was around when I saw my neighbor (who was like, 7 at the time) one. I tried them, and I loved them.
I am 11 now, and my dad still tries to pull it off on Halloween, but I know now that he just wanted them for himself!E

I used to believe that cotton candies were made by airplanes or helicopters flying high up in the sky and getting a big plastic bag or glass to scoop out some clouds. Then colour it then wrap it..
I was a pretty silly kid back then...

I used to believe if you ate the pips out of apples a tree would grow inside you. Lmao!

I belive that if you swallow more than one chewing gum you want die because chewing gum is just like any other pease of candy. my mom said that gum is a waste of time.

I used to believe…

When I was in the second grade, I used to believe that if you drank white milk, your skin would turn white but if you drank chocolate milk, your skin would turn dark. Lol... I still laugh about that!

I used to believe…

My dad used to tell me that if I swallowed the orange seed, I'll grow an orange tree in my stomach. I was so scared that I didn't dare drink any water in hope that it will slow down the process of the tree growing

i was told if i ate too many seeds or too much of the same thing it would grow out of my ears or i'd turn into that object. :D
