when i was little i thought a serial killer was someone who killed people for their cereal
When I was little I used to think that if you ate something to much you would turn into it.(I still believe carrots will turn you orange in the long run)
When I was around 3 or 4 i hated fish , so i would never eat it! around the same time i watched 'The Little Mermaid' ...and fell in love with Ariel! At the time i didn't really know how to swim ...and so my mom told me that if i ate fish i would turn into a mermaid ! I ate fish constantly , and would always stick my legs into our pool to see if they would turn into a fin!.... if ur wondering ...they never did !
When i was really young i used to loooove ice cream so much that once we had run out i had gotten the chocolate sandwhich spread 'nutella' and ate that in a bowl as a substitute for icecream and when my mother saw the chocolate in the bowl she would always ask when had we bought icecream? lol. i never told her because i didn't want everyone eating my chocolate 'icecream'
i used to belive that in 2nd grade if ate all my lunch from the cafeteria they would give me a prize sadly i ate it all but nothing happened
When I was younger I was told, by my aunt, that stuffing is the inside of a turkey( heart, liver, ect..). Despite this belief every Thanksgiving I would eat it until I would begin thinking about what it was and get a little nauseous, especially if I had a particularly moist portion. It wasn't until this past thanksgiving which was after my 17th birthday that I was told the truth. But if you think about it thats not to bad because my aunt really thought it was the insides of a turkey and shes 38.
Once during dinner when I was about 6, I kept slurping my soup really loudly, and my mom got really irritated about this so she told me that "If you keep slurping your soup like that you'll go deaf." I taught myself to eat my soup in a very quiet manner and believed that until I was 10.
I used to belief that mangoes were blue, because of a children's book where they were painted that colour. i was horrified when I realized that they weren't! I'm still searching, there must be some out there somewhere...
top belief!
I used to believe that if i didn't eat all my frosties Tony the Tiger would come and eat me

when i was about 5 or 6, my mom would always show me those commercials where there were kids in somalia that ate out of garbage cans because they were so poor. so my mom would show me those commercials and tell me, "That's why you should eat everything that i give you because those kids have nothing to eat." So I thought that my mom didnt want to help those kids because she told me to eat everything on my plate and not throw anything away. so naturally, i threw all the food that i could into the trash can. i thought that this would help the kids who ate out of the trash cans.
Note:
my mom meant that i shouldnt thrown any thing into the trash because i was lucky to have food and that i shouldnt waste it. i was 5 or 6 so i didnt get the meaning at the time.

When I was about 9 years old, my Mom gave me some money and told me to get her a pound of lox. Later, I came back home with the money she had given me and told her the man in the hardware store said he only sold locks by the piece, not the pound.
When my mom baked whole chickens and/or cornish hens in the oven - I used to stick notes on them that said "help me, it is hot in here"
i belived that you said grace at dinner time if the food was bad. when I was 4 my grandma asked if I wasnt going to say prayers before dinner? No I replied mums a good cook.
When i was little and I wanted to eat at Wendy's I used to tell my mom i wanted to eat at the place with "the little girl with red hair" in spanish, for some reason she never understood me. I don't see why she didn't... oh well
i used to think that when you ate things like liver and brains it would add to your own, the little bits after being chewed would move to corresponding organ in your body. if u ate more liver your liver would grow.
when i was a little kid, my parents told me that how ever many grain of rice i left on my plate, it would appear on my face. so, when i saw people with pimples on their face, i thought it was because they left rice on their plate.
Once when I was younger I thought that a mistake was some kind of meat like a porterhouse or a t- bone, so when my parents would say that they made a mistake I thought dinner would be ready soon.

When I was little we used to eat at Chinese restaurants a lot, and I would always see "hunan chicken", as in chicken cooked in the style of the Hunan province in China, on the menu. I misread it as "human chicken" and thought it was made from people. Once my grandma ordered some and i freaked out- "Don't eat it Grandma! Its people!"
Mom told us that if we didn't eat every single bite of our veggies at dinner time, we'd get colon cancer.
