When I was little my Dad asked my mum what was for tea that day. She replied Faggots and I said you never say Soddit and Faggot because they are rude words. I think I meant Sod it or F**k it
I used to think that if I didn't eat food for a long time I would fall apart into pieces. I stopped believing it at 7 years because I found out its not possible.
I used to think that when you ate too much, your stomach would get filled up and you could never eat again in your life.
When I was little I used to think that when you ate food that it would just keep building up inside your body. Like, when you first ate, it would go to your toes and keep going up to your leg, exc. exc.
When i was little i used to think brocclie (sp?) were little trees and I would shake the before i ate them just incase there was a birds nest in there.
I've always liked Quaker products... oh so yummy. But when I first moved to the U.S. they called it by another name. I wasn't sure how you pronounced it but I thought it sounded like 'Quacker' like a duck quacking. Until 5th grade I learned how to pronounce it.

I used to think that mushrooms came from where the Smurfs lived and sometimes I'd wonder if anyone had ever picked up a smurf and packed it in a punnet of mushrooms by mistake and used to see if I could find one. I'd look very closely because I knew the smurfs were small!
My dad told me when I was younger that if I'd save my ice-cream cone at Braums, I could have more. I always forgot about this but he would be sure to remind me when I was done eating it. Finally one day, I ate every drop of ice-cream that was in my cone but finally I had saved my cone. He laughed at me and told me he was joking! He let me believe this for several years lol how mean XD
I used to believe that the UL symbol on boxes of lightbulbs meant that they were kosher. I obviously had no idea what kosher meant, and the UL must have looked a bit too much like the "circle U" symbol I'd seen on other items in the grocery store.
My grandad had a cockateil and one day we'd gone there for tea. I was about 13 at the time. My mum was talking about sunflower seeds and what they tasted like, so curiosity got the better of me and I took one out of the bird's seed and ate it. Immediately after my parents told me very seriously that I'd turn into a cockateil! I didn't believe them at that moment and shrugged it off.. however, that night when I got home, I was drinking some water from a mug and happened to look at the reflection in the bottom of it. I could see I was forming a beak and my eyes were on the side of my head like a bird. I screamed and dropped the mug and started crying. My alarmed mum asked me what on earth was wrong - I told her and she told me not to be ridiculous and that she was just joking about me turning into a bird. I had to reassure myself by looking in the mirror..
Thankfully, to this day - I'm pretty sure I'm still human.. however, I'm still expecting the day I morph into a bird!
My sister thought a fruit machine (the gaming device) could turn one item of fruit into another.
I used to think that rice grains were little pieces of pasta, rather than naturally forming grains.
When I was little, I believed marshmallows grew on trees. So everytime we'd go to the grocery store, I would beg for a bag of the small ones (my "seeds") and run home and plant them. They never grew :(

I used to believe that spaghetti was called "left-overs" because every time my family said we were having left-overs for dinner it was spaghetti
My great grandma used to make homemade bread. She used to tell us that if you ate the raw dough ( ew but when your a kid you try anything) it would expand till your stomach exploded!
I used to believe that burritos were animals, so when we had burritos for lunch at my school, I'd cut it with a fork and show my meat sauce covered fork to the other boys and go "YAAAAAAAAH!!! DISEMBOWELMENT!!!" And they'd freak out.

One time when I was little, I went to the grocery store with my Mom and she saw an egg plant and she was jokeing around and said "Look baby!! Its an alien" Well ofcourse I belived her. She bought two. Your thinking I was scared of the eggplant. WRONG! When we got home, I asked if I could look at the eggplant. I took it into myy room and I dressed it up in cabage patch doll cloth and put it in my stroler and I strolled it around the house. My Mom always had to take the egg plants when they got old and she would switch them out. lol
I would also not talk to my perants after they ate egg plant. I got very upset!
when i was little my mom used to tell me if you eat food before you go to sleep you will have nighmares
