My sister and i were on a plane coming home, when the stewardess gave us swiss cheese. My sister wanted mine, so she told me about her friend who turned into a mouse when she was 7, like me. and she told me that you can only eat it is you were 12 or over. I now hate cheese

My grandmother used to always eat shredded wheat cereal and so I used to call those huge rolls of hay in the farmers fields "giant shredded wheat"!

My dad always told me that ketchup was made out of beans

Daddy's Little Girl

I used to think mushroom is a room with many rooms!

I used to believe that if I accidentally ate one of the spikes on a pineapple my parents would yell at me for eating too big of a piece of the pineapple.(don't ask where this came from)

yummy spikes!

When I was Little, I thought a Pizza Pie was Tomatoe sauce, cheese, and Pepperoni inside of a pie crust....

When i was around 3 i was very smart for my age and my mom basically made me a wierd little kid. She taught me never ever EVER eat dessert before your real food and i thought it was the law and so at my aunts wedding i saw her eating wedding cake and i ran up to her screaming NONONO u cant do that u have to eat real food FIRST and THEN you can have junk food!!! (i did the same thing at lunchtime in kindergarden, no wonder i was unpopular)

When I was about 4 years old, my older cousin told me that the little brown spots on tortilla chips and Fritos were actually moles off off old people's butts. I didn't eat them again until I was 11 or 12.

I used to think after watching a old 70's ad for Shredded Wheat that I could make it
by picking wheat (or simular) and adding
water in a bowl.

I never ate any thought.

I used to think that pickles grew naturally in the sea, and that's why the water in the jar was so salty.

I used to believe that because oranges are called oranges, then bananas are called yellows, and watermelons are called greens. The only thing was I couldn't work out what an apple was called because they come in two different colours; would they be a redgreen?

I thought that olives grew with that red pimento already in them. Then I somehow rationalized that as they ripen the red pimento became a pit. That's why black olives sometimes have pits.

When I was small, I used to eat prunes, including the pits. My brothers told me that I would grow "prune trees" out of my ears.

Brilliant, Really!

When I was little, my mother would serve asparagus. My father told me they were hummingbird tongues. Needless to say, I would not eat them. I was practically grown before I knew what they really were! I love asparagus now!
