Starburst candy used to air commercials where they would show a person popping a candy into their mouth, and then the camera would switch to showing that person riding an exhilarating roller coaster ride, or sailing off the top of a mountain on a hang-glider. I guess this was to show how exciting the taste of Starburst candy was.

Except I took the commercials literally and thought that if I ate a Starburst candy, that I would instantly get shot off a cliff or sent flying around in a crazy (scary!) roller coaster. I held this fear until I was about 7!

I used to think if you chewed gum while using the toilet it would come out your butt. I would always spit out gum before sitting down.

my brother and I used to think we could make bubblegum balls ourselves. We would roll chewed up saltines into balls, cover them with pepto bismol (pink and minty), and leave them in the refrigerator to harden. it didn't work.

My dad once told me that if everyone threw their gum out of their car windows, the city wouldn't have to fill all the pot holes. I was 12 before I realized he was joking. Unfortunately, I throw like a girl (because I am) and hit the car next to us instead of the street. That took some 'splanin.

When I was little, my sister told me that if I swallowed chewing gum, or just any lollie without chewing it, I would die. I remember a teacher handing out lollies. Then I swallowed mine and I was nearly crying. I'll never let my sister forget that.

My sister always pronounced - and spelled - chewing gum that way: jewing gum. She obviously thought it was a Jewish invention. Well, maybe it is???

When I was in kindergarten I believed that rocks developed from gum. I was chewing some one day, and spit it out into the dirt. Me and my friends went back to the same spot and dug it up, only to find a rock.
