When I Was Little I Used To Think That "Shredded Wheat" was called Squirrels....I Dunno Why But For the register we had to say a cereal and i said squirells and everyone sat there and laughed at me and i didnt have the slightest clue why....

when i was in about grade 2 or 3 i ate soo many rasins! one day jokingly my mother said raisins caused cancer beause they dried up in the sun and sun causes cancer..believing her i went to school the next day and at circle time i told my classmates, my teacher assured me and the class that they were not cancer pockets.

I used to believe that the chip bags where always only half full because, the people who worked there always tryed to sneek chips and some times they got to them that's why they were always half full.

My mother used to tell us kids that the potassium in a banana was concentrated at the bottom. If we didn't eat the blackish part at the bottom then we were wasting all the nutrients.

When I was a little girl I used to believe when we ate a cherry stone and then drank we had a cherrytree on our stomach.

Nine years ago, so I was 6 years old, I loved cherries so I ate a lot but one time when I played a game with my brother in the kitchen I ate a cherrystone. I was so afraid and stressful to died during the night. My brother was so bad with me because he said me “ Nina, you will have a cherrytree on your stomach” and “ You will become a cherry tomorrow”. I was so bad and I’m cried in my bed during 2 hours before sleeping. Finally my parents said that’s was a lie. The next day I didn’t have the skin red so I was happy.

Now when kid eat a cherrystone and my family say the same of my brother I smile because I lo longer believe this joke. The memories is funny now but it wasn’t funny and cool before.

I was about 4 when my mom would take me to the cupcake store after school and get me a cupcake. I thought that the wrapper was holding the top up and that there was nothing below the top, so I was always shocked when Mom pulled off the wrapper and ate the bottom after I had eaten the top.

When I was little I thought I was the only person in the world who eats sliced apples with peanut butter spread on them. I used to ask my mom to make them for me and thought I was so original.

The only yogurt we had as kids was Knudsen brand, lemon yogurt. My sister and I just called it Knudsen Yogurt, not knowing what the words meant.

Then we saw a cartoon or something with a witch making a broth, and one ingredient was "Eye of Newt."

After that we thought we were asking for Newts and Yogurt.

My friend believed that chicken stock, or chicken essense was made by getting a bunch of chickens, and boiling them down in a big pot to create "Essense of chicken".

A family friend said he could wiggle his ears because he ate a lot of carrots. I faitfully ate my carrots but somehow I could never get my ears to move.

I had my mom buy a box of lucky charms because I thought the little leprechaun would be inside.

I used to believe that when I ate a bowl of cereal that had a commercial i had seen, whatever happen in the commercial would happen to me. Like Fruity Loops, i thought a jungle would appear all around me and I would meet tucan sam.

Like any other little kid, I used to believe that brussels-sprouts were tiny baby cabbages, and I still call them like that. And that chewing gum would glue to your stomach if you swallowed it. And, worst of all, that bowling ball were made out of coconuts, like in Flinstones.

I believed that Brussel Sprouts were baby cabbages....they are just so cute!

i used to think 'grilled cheese sandwich', my favourite lunch, was actaully 'girl cheese sandwich' which meant it was only for girls

My dad and I convinced my 11 year old sister that buffalo wings come from baby buffalo, that when they are babies their wings fall off and voila! buffalo wings
