I used to confuse the time of 'Lent' with the verb 'lend'. I thought that when someone gave up something for lent they would give it all to someone. I told myself that one day i would give up cough medcine and punish the greedy person who took everyone's sweets and cakes.

When I was in first grade, as an excuse to get away from vegetables,I became a meatatarian. Yes, I ate no vegetables. I proclimed that killing vegetables was wrong and cruel, and that they have feelings too. So my parents started fibbing to me. They started saying that deserts all have vegetables in them. After a little while, I gave up on it.

I hate cocoanuts but my sister told me if I ate them and made a wish, it would come true. I ate so many, and my wishes never came true...

When i was a kid, i used to think that only black people ate fried chicken. I thought this because my relatives would always want fried chicken when we had family get togethers. Then when i saw a crisco commerical with white people eating fried chicken i was so shocked.
1. shocked because they were enjoying and eating the fried chicken, and 2. because the fried chicken on tv never looked like the kind my mom makes, leading me to belive that white people had some kind of secret recipe to make the chicken super golden and crispy.

I used to think that a head of lettuce was called a head of salad because my mom used to ask me to make the salad for dinner and I thought lettuce was called salad because no one used the word lettuce. I thought this until I was about 11.

One day when I was about 6 or 7, I was at the grocerey store with my mom. After we had paid for the food, I read the receipt (I loved reading them, don't ask why). The food names are abreviated to save space, so instead of seeing "Swanson Chicken Pie" on the receipt, I saw "Swan Chick Pie". Naturally, being the animal lover that I am, I didn't want to eat a pie made out of baby swans! So I declared to my mom, "I'm never eating little swans, and you can't make me!" After she finally figured out what I was talking about, she burst out laughing. I'll never live that one down.

I used to believe that butter cooled hot foods. Every time I couldn't eat something because it was too hot I would put butter on it and wait for it to cool. By time I ate whatever I was eating it was cool so therefore I kept believing that butter cooled hot foods.

When I was about 5 or 6, I used to believe that when I would put food in the microwave that a little man lived in there and that he would heat my food up. Then one day I was popping popcorn at my friends house, I asked her about the little man that lived in HER microwave. She gave me a weird look and that was when I figured out that MicroWAVES heat the food and not little men.

I used to believe that my mother would sometimes cook and serve 'lamb snakes', being mean snakes that ate lambs, that were so mean they deserved to be cooked and eaten. I was about 8 years old when I realized they were 'lamb steaks'.
