I used to think pineapples came from cheese, because they I thought cut slices look the same. I thought that's why they had ham & pineapple pizzas.

Until I was in HIGH SCHOOL I thought that pimentos occured naturally inside of green olives. Embarrassed myself terribly finding out otherwise.

While growing up, us kids always had Knudsen's lemon flavored yogurt for a snack. We knew of no other brands or flavors, so all we ever asked for was "Knudsen's Yogurt!" but it was just a phrase since we did not really know about different brand names. Well one day I saw a cartoon of a witch making a special brew and one ingredient was "eye of newt." I found out a newt was a little animal like a lizard. I wanted to get one because they must be delicious since I figured out that we eat "Newts and Yogurt."

I remember thinking that to make your toast darker, you had to put in jam sandwich. Through experimentation i can tell you it's not true.

One day( I was very Young) I was having a peanut butter sandwich, when I stumbled onto the thought " Where does peanut butter come from? " I didn't want my cousin to think I was stupid so I just asked where butter came from, he saidCows. So the next day we went for a drive and I saw a cow with something beside it. I made my parent stop so I could marvel at the "Peanut Butter " I wonder Why she wouldn't let me taste it?

When I was young, I always believed that when I ordered a fish sandwich at McDonald's (or anywhere else) they actually had to take the fish out of a pond in the back of the restaurant and cook it.

When I was younger my mother used to put croutons in soup. I always thought that a ghost was drinking my soup for me as I was not a big fan of it, but it was actually just the croutons absorbing the soup. Silly me

When I was little I was having breakfast with my parents. While reading the menu I noticed a small blurb that read "egg beaters, 25 cents extra." I thought it was very strange that they actually allowed people to beat their own eggs in the restaraunt.

When I was 8 or 9 there was a commercial for Powerpuff Girls cereal. After watching the commercial I thought the cereal would actually give me superpowers, so I begged my parents to buy me the cereal (I didn't tell them the reason) and my dad had to search all over the place for the cereal and when I finally got it I found out it did not give me superpowers, and it tasted horrible.

When I was little, I always used to get the words "navel" and "nasal" mixed up. I always wondered why oranges were named after your nose...
Also, I sometimes confused "navy" with "navel," and that really got me wondering about the orange situation.
