i used to think that when you ate food it went into your heart not your intestines
i use to belive if you eat to much of a food u will turn into that food
One weekend when I was a little girl, I stayed at my aunt's house. One day that weekend she made salmon (the kind that comes in the can) and rice. This was the year I my teeth were falling out. While we were eating, I asked my cousin about the bones (at that time, I didn't know what they were!) that were looked over. He looked at me and smiled and said with a straight face, "They are teeth and if you eat them, your teeth will grow back!" so I wanted to eat salmon everyday so my teeth could grow back faster!
I didn't know what a boiled egg was becuase my granma always use to make me them. So I use to say "Granma, can I have a fixten egg?" becuase it wasn't broken like a fried one! She use to encourage it!!!!
I used to think that honey grahams at the store were graham crackers filled with honey, that would flow out in a delicious liquid form when you bit into them. I would wish so much that my mother would buy that kind of graham cracker instead of the boring old regular grahams.
When i was little i asked mt dad where dill pickles came from and he told me they were frog bodies that had been flavored. I beleived him.
When, I was a kid, I used to believe that cane sugar came from the city Cannes
I used to believe that red pistachio shells were the same as women's press on nails.

my parents used to tell me that if we left food on our plates it was 'a mouthful for the devil' so we were too scared to leave any in case the devil came and took it!
my grandmother used to tell me that if you ate rice pudding everyday you would live to be onr hundred years old.
I once told my brother that tapioca pudding was has fish eyeballs in it an when I told him it was a joke but he still wouldn't eat it.
when I was little I use to think that the noodles in spagetti were worms and the meatballs were eye-ball's eeeww!!
my Brother and Sister told me that and when I told my mom that they told me that she told me the truth!!!
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 !
I used to believe that there were two kinds of olives: those with a stone (black) and those with red stuff inside (green), and that they grow like that on trees.
When I was about 3, my Dad convinced me I didn't like Peanut Butter & Jelly sandwiches...only Jelly & Peanut Butter. So, when my mom would make me a PB&J I would cry until she made me a J&PB instead. Of course, she just went into the kitchen and flipped it over!
For some reason, I used to believe that if you put grape "stems" (the stuff left over after you've eaten all of the grapes) in the oven, that it'd turn into a huge baked turkey.
I used to think that butter's only use was to cool down hot foods; butter is kept in the fridge and then you cut a slice off put it on hot food and it melts into liquid that cools the food so you can eat it...toast pops up..it gets buttered...hot dinner rolls out of the oven...get the butter...corn-on-the-cob...slather it on!
i asked my dad why we had to wait for food to arrive in a restaurant, and he said it was because you had to 'catch the chips first' etc... i belived him. haha
I had a co-worker who had a very young son. She, her husband, daughter and son had gone out to dinner one night.
The waiter asked everyone what type of dressing they wanted on their salads.
They all said they wanted the "House" dressing.
When the salads came to the table, her son was disgusted.
He said "This is not the kind of dressing we have at the house"!
