I used to belive that if a label said free, like fat "free" or sodium "free" , the company selling the food would pay for all of the fat or sodium in the food. I didnt realize that there was actually no fat in the product and then started to think food companies were cheap telling you they would pay for a portion of the food and not even put it in. I belived this until I was 12.

My mother in law used to tell my husband when he was a kid while they were at the grocery store to make sure he got all the extra air out of the produce bags that way she didn't have to pay for it. So he would squeeze and twist the bag as much as he could. This went on for a couple years. I am so going to use that one on our kids.

I thought The moon was made in honey.
Why?
On our french honey pots it said 'lune de miel'
wich means literally moon of honey. (even though I knew bees made honey)
I later realised it meant 'honeymoon'
lol.
(i soo wanted to go on the moon)

A few years ago, my friend got tired of her little sister eating all the ice cream sandwiches so she convinced her that they were made out of llamas. She refused to eat them and would cry whenever my friend would take one out of the freezer and would exclaim, "Those poor llamas!"

My cousin and I used to believe that if we ate enough food, we would get so big we could lay down in the streets and everyone in the world could jump on our stomaches like trampolines. Needless to say, our plates were usually clean.

My father told me that if I ate rhubarb, I'd grow hair on my chest. I thought this would be interesting and was disappointed when it didn't happen (I'm a woman now, and am still waiting)
