I used to think that anchovies were a vegetable that tasted like chili but were unusual because if you put them in water they would float

As a child, i used to find toothpaste particularly yummy. To prevent me from eating too much of it, my dad always told me tht very soon, id have a 'toothpaste tree' growing in my tummy and out of my mouth. That really did make me apprehensive abt my fav meal.

I used to believe that the old tan M&Ms tasted different than all other M&Ms. I would eat M&Ms, but every time I tried a tan one, thinking maybe I'd gotten a bad one last time, I hated it. Needless to say, I was happy when they replaced them with the blue ones.

When I was a kid mom would occasionally make grits for breakfast. I hated them with a passion. I asked her what they were made out of, "Pig butts", she replied. I believed it well into my teens.

Whenever I got ice cream,( I was about 4) I would always order the "soft" ice cream because I thought the "hard" ice cream was actually hard and it would hurt my teeth if I tried to bite into it.

My mother told us never to eat popcorn before going to bed, as it was very hard to digest.

When I was litle, I used to belive that saucisson was made out of pig's tail.

Let me explain : one night I had a dream in wich I was in a big supermarket with my parents and in an alley I saw a big pig statue and I asked : "What is saucisson made out of ?" and my mom just answerd me that it was pig's tail and trusted her ! Even though it was a dream I acually belived saucisson was made out og pig's tail in real life too !

One day at school, I don't know why, we talked about saucissson with my friends and they started laughing and I just didn't understand ! And after school when Iasked my parents, they said that they never told me that and it's only then that I realised that what I remembered was a dream ! I felt so stupid !

Now when I think about it, I just laugh. Why would we eat pig's tail? I was so naïve that I belived in my dreams !

When eating a meal, my mum would check my corners (the little space under your shoulder), there was always space for a pudding!

I was convinced all through my childhood that the backbone in a sardine was actually its teeth!
