Mine is similar to another I seen. When I was a kid my older brother told me that the peaches in a can have veins in them. If you look closely, you'll see what I mean. To this day I don't eat much fruit at all beacause I've noticed that a lot of fruit has "Veins."

On my first day of kindergarten, the lunch menu said, "Pig in a blanket" (A hotdog wrapped in bread.) Visualizing a very large live pig shaking and covering it's eyes while hiding under my 'Blankie', (blanket) I walked up to my mom, all worried, and asked, "Do I really have to eat a pig in a blanket?"

I used to believe that chicken fingers were sea food. Because whenever you go to a seafood resturant, chicken is always an option.

For some reason, I used to believe that if you put grape "stems" (the stuff left over after you've eaten all of the grapes) in the oven, that it'd turn into a huge baked turkey.

I believed when I was little that the crunchy stuff on fried chicken was actually the chicken's feathers. They would just pop the chicken into the oven and it would come out looking like fried chicken...

My mom told me that when she was little, she was always excited to open the Pillsbury packets, hoind the doughboy would hop out.

I used to think brown eggs were only for black people, because nobody I knew bought or ate them, I just saw this one black lady in the store with them in her cart.

When my husband was small, he asked his father where spaghetti noodles come from. His father told them that macaroni's grow in fields in Italy and that spaghetti is extracted from the inside of the macaroni stalks.

I used to believe that veal was space cows.

When I was younger my dad told me that if I ate carrots, my eyes would become brighter

My friend told me that when she was younger, her older sister told her that cucumbers were really frogs legs.

I used to believe(with the help of my dad)that cucumbers came from the sea. I always thought that, until I got older and realized it was stupid, but still didn't know where they came from. I found out this past month that they grow on vines(i'm now 14)I never told anyone

As a self-respecting boy, I refused to order grilled cheese sandwiches, thinking them to be called "girled cheese sandwiches." Hence I always asked the waitress for a "boyed cheese sandwich."

My Dad always said that carrots would make my eyes green and my hair red! Which they already were!

Also if you put butter on graham crackers they will explode!

When I was to young to actually grasp the concept of pronounciation, I said "hamburger" as "Ham-booger".
This led me to believe that people working at fast-food restaurants picked their nose constantly to make the products they were selling.

I saw my mom putting thin spikes of something into a pot on the oven , and when I asked she explained the process of making spaghetti. I thought about a large circular thing that could hold water, and connected it to ... yes , the toilet. Later , she found me fishing strands of soggy noodles out of the toilet , proudly saying that I had "boiled" them by flushing it and taking out the pieces that remained.

My father was a hunter and used to hunt deer. When he would come home with some and we would have it for dinner he would always tell me it was Venison (so I wouldn't know what it was). I used to eat it and say, "Yummy Daddy, this tastes just like meat"!

I used to think that if you ate spinach that eventually, you would be as big as popeye the sailor man.

i used to believe that dried prunes were giant rasins.

As a nine year old just coming to america from Cuba, I thought that the Mexican food "burrito" was actually meat from a "burro" or donkey! Which was fine by me, because they tasted good!
