food: general

Whenever my mom would take me to a fast food joint, I'd always want her to order me large, or extra large fries if they had them, because I believed I got longer fries if I got a larger size. I even complained once that 'these aren't large fries' because they were too short.

When I was younger my dad's friend came over for dinner and when preparing my plate i was given onions. My dad's friend seemed amazed that I liked onions and said to me, "A girl that likes onions will probably grow hair on her chest!" Unaware that he was simply surprised that I liked onions I actually began checking for hairs for a while after he had told me...

I believed mustard was a mineral, like salt. On a preschool field trip, one of the parents was talking about a mustard plant. I was very insulted that he thought I would be dopey enough to believe in that. And he wouldn't give in! Yeah, right--and candy canes sprout out of the ground.

When I was about 3-to-5 years old (can't remember exact age), I was eating quail eggs. At that age, I haven't been paying attention to my willie. Then After having the quail eggs, I suddenly notice my testicles and thought those are the quail eggs I ate.

when i was 8 i believed that if you swallowed a turnip, you would tun into a japanese fishing boat

My friend used to believe that the brown bruised bits on bananas, were in fact honey!! lol

When I was really little, I really hated onions, but I really loved carrots. So my parents decided to say that the onions where in fact ‘White Carrots’, and foolishly I believed them and I ate them ¬.¬’

When I was about 6 years old my family went out to eat at some seafood restaurant. My dad ordered scallops and he told me that they were shark fin. So I always believed him until I was about 12 and in school we were doing a project about sea life and I then learned that scallops are a shellfish. HA! Rescently when we went out to eat, he got scallops again, and my little brother tried one and was like "Waiter, can I have some shark fin?" it was the funniest because he [u]really[/u] thought scallops were from shark!

I used to think that eggs were actually called 'neggs'. Rational being that it was one was 'a negg'

My friend used to think that if you squish white bread and rolls, it makes them less fattening.. she still squishes her rolls before she east them.

i used to think CHAPATI (in Hindi) meant Tea Leaves. I didn't know that CHAPATI is actually the Hindi synonym for The Indian Bread commonly known as ROTI.

When I was fairly young, I got it into my head that pepperoni was some kind of vegetable. I think I read somewhere that vegetarians kids liked pizza, which of course to an eight year old means pepperoni. I asked my mom about it, and she, being funny, said, "Sure pepperoni grows on trees." I believed her (still not quite sure how I ended up being considered "gifted") I am ashamed to say I was probably about 12 or 13 before I figured it out.

When I was little I used to think about french fries. I though that the ends with the potatoe skin on the ends were really snake skin.

I thought it was "Smashed Tomatoes" instead of mashed patatoes

when i was 4 or 5, i loved my dads star wars action figures. whenever i had pizza for dinner with my grandpa, i'd ask him if i could have the little table in the center of the pieand use it for my dads star wars action figures' dinner.


3 years later, i found out that that little table was used for keeping from the pizzas flyin all over the box. herei am 30 years later and I still use the tables for the remining of now my star wars action figures
:-)

When I was little my mom made dinosaur cookies. One time a dinosaurs head broke off. I was like mom you chopped off his head! She said no no. He just laughed too hard so it snapped. He's alright.
