nasty food

My mum always used to say that Cod's Roe was made from the "Willies" of little boys who kept playing with them.

I overhead my mother talking with someone one day when I was around four years old about someone that didn't drink. When I asked "didn't they ever get thirsty?", she explained that it meant the person didn't drink alcohol. I thought she meant rubbing alcohol, and I wondered about people that actually DID drink that awful stuff...

When I was young we used to order pizza on Friday nights, and I hated it, because my parents would always order saugage and peppers, and I thought thats the only way pizza came, so I used to eat mac and cheese, till I got older and figured out it came however you wanted it. Never let my parents live that one down...

When I was young I used to eat worms. Reason for this was cause I thought it was spaghetti and every time I bring my new pals round my parents tell of my dreadful mistake!!!!

When my son was about 4 he LOVED hot dogs. He ate them for almost every meal and snack. Until one day my husbands younger cousin told him that if you eat hot dogs you poop worms. I took him about 7 years before he would eat another hot dog.

When me and my family went to a restaraunt a long time back, me and my uncle ordered Lo Main Noodles. And, my dad told me the noodles were worms. For a couple of years, I believed that the noodles were worms and they were going to eat me...

I was told not to eat the blackened parts of french-fries at fast-food places because they were flies that fell into the oil. I still don't eat them (lol)!

I hate avacados for one simple reason my grandma puts slices of them in her salads and when i was little maybe 4, I ate one not knowing what it was and made a face. My uncle who was sitting next to me told me it was a slug and to be more careful when I ate salad... I have given avacados the benifit of tasting better but the majority of the time that slug reference still freaks me out. I am almost 30...

I was once eating a peach and had bitten down to the stone - when i looked down again there was a huge bug and a crack in the stone. I was convinced it had been living inside and wouldn't eat another peach until well into my adulthood.

I used to believe that a hot dog was a pig's tail uncurled.

You have seen the package of Kellogs`s corn flakes, the one with the rooster with the small, red "beard"? Well, I thought that the corn flakes were made of the rooster`s "red beard".

That eating dry bread would give you worms.

When I was about six, my best friend told me the moon was made of green cheese. I wouldn't eat cheese again for years.
