I told my cousin who at the time was 6 that hot dogs were made out of wiener dogs (dachshunds). My Aunt told me a couple of years ago that my cousin wouldn’t eat hot dogs for the next three years. I was horrible. Sorry Cousin…forgive me?

Since pistachios look vaguely like they could be shriveled up and discolored peanuts, I got the idea, from their name, as a child, that "achios" was another name for peanuts, and that pistachios were peanuts that had gotten shriveled and discolored from someone peeing on them! I wondered how anyone could possibly want to eat peanuts that had been peed on. Not surprisingly it was numerous years before I ever ventured to taste pistachios. When I did I found them to be in a category like anchovies, namely foods with a taste that one can be curiously drawn to even though one wouldn't exactly call it delicious. I'm sure that if I had dared taste them as a child, my thought that they were pissed-on peanuts would have seemed to be affirmed!

I believed that the only way I would get big boobs when I grew up was if I ate all of my vegetables at dinner. That is the lie that my parents told me......

I don't like mustard, and once when I was around 5 went to Mcdonalds with my grandma and there was mustard on my cheeseburger. I freaked out and said I wouldn't eat it...until she told me it was yellow ketchup. I believe it was yellow ketchup until I was about 11 and I realized yellow ketchup didn't exist.

When I was little, my brother and sister told me that dog food was actually coco puffs. They got me to eat a WHOLE BOWL!! Actually, dog food is gross, but not that bad. And now, every once in awhile, I take a nibble of a dog treat out of curiosity. Most of them are really gross!!! :P

When I was 5 years old my dad told me that veal was baby cow brains. I proceeded to spit out my dinner and refuse to eat anymore. Now, at 18, I am still unable to eat veal. Though I know its not baby cow brains, I still gag whenever I am near it.

To get me to eat liver and onions, my parents used to tell me it was brown chicken. And I loved it.

When I was four, my dad's best friend told me that the black olives on his pizza were cockroaches (to keep me from eating his pizza - how much pizza could a four year old eat?). To this day, I can't eat black olives.

My big sister insisted that cinnamon (sugar) and pepper were the same thing. I tried some pepper and spit it out. Then she convinced me that it tasted differently on different parts of the tongue. Thoughout my childhood I always moved pepper around in my mouth trying to get it to taste like cinnamon.

My friend Rod hates any kind of meringue pie because when he was 6 his father told him it was cow slobber.

One time when I was a kid I asked what a cannibal was and my mom said its someone who eats other people. For some reason it didn't occor to me that they could cut up and cook someone so I imagined they just opened their mouth really wide and swallowed the other person whole!

I used to believe in 'SPAM' animals until I was 13 years old and read the back of a can. Thanks to my father's wild imagination and description of a beast that had parts from all types of animals, I never ate any SPAM!!

When my cousin and I were about 5 or 6, we would always see her 13 year old sister putting on chapstick, then smack and lick her lips. We were convinced she was eating it and must've really liked it, because she'd reapply it a lot. So we found some old chapstick and licked it. We were convinced she had terrible taste!

I convinced my boyfriend that paprika flavored crisps were made from donkeys...he was 20 at the time.

Whoever put this mean idea in my head way back when I was 7 needs a real good dose of what they made me believe in ...that invisible spiders were in the cheese slices and that peanuts were actually crushed insects.... I didn't want to eat or try anything that crunched for a long time after that!!! Sometimes when I'm chewing on candy or whatever and I hear that crunching sound..I think..Please don't let it be an insect!!! UUUGGGHHH!!!! (LOL)
