I also heard the rumor about pop rocks and drinking pepsi. I tried it once, and I ended up having really bad gas, but at the time I thought I was dying. I also was told that if you drink orange juice after you drink the milk off of your cereal, you'll throw up. This doesn't happen either.

I used to believe that when putting black pepper on your food, the pepper would eat at the lining of your stomach. I have no idea what gave me that idea, but someone must have mentioned something to that effect to have me believe this for so very long.

i don't know if this is true, but someone i used to know said that everytime you eat a crisp, somewhere a new star is born and a planet blows up and its people die!!! this friend also said that spaghetti grows on trees and that there is no such thing as spinach (it was just a myth told to make kids be quiet), so i am not sure if i believe this or not but all the same, i never eat crisps!!!!!

I used to believe that I was allergic to rice. Every time I ate it, I spent five hours in the bathroom. Finally, I realized that I wasn't allergic to it, It just gave me constipations.

I still tell people that i'm allergic to rice.

I used to believe if you swallow gum, you'd die. I've never eaten gum since, but now its because I don't like it

I had a weird obsession with eating raw potatoes, and i don't think it bothered my mother, but she once told me that my cousin's frends had eaten heaps of potatoes to get their temperature up so they didn't have to go to uni. This i found fascinating, and so I ate even MORE than the normal amount of raw potatoes and thought my temperature would go up, but it didn't. So i figured i was completely immune to diseases (i wish! I even had the german measles, so much for IMMUNITY) HA!

When I was a young warthog, I believed that when you baked apple pie the apples turned into little demons. When you ate the apples (or "little demons") you turned into a giant demon. I have never eaten apple pie again.
