If you swallow a seed a plant will grow inside you.

My dad said that if I swallowed the seed of anything, a small tree of the fruit of vegetable would grow in my stomach.

When I was younger my older sister told me that if I swallowed a seed a tree would grow inside of me. I believed her! I was very careful anytime I ate fruit with seeds in them. Imagine my struggle as I ate a watermelon!

It was common knowledge when I was little that if you ate apple seeds a tree would grow and grow inside you until branches would be coming out of your ears. ALL the kids knew this!

As a child i believed that if you accidentally swalowed an apple or orange pip, they would begin growing in your tummy. I imagined I had a whole garden of Eden happening in there.

That if you ate the pips out of oranges a orange tree would sprout out of you.

When i was about 4 or 5 i used 2 believe that if i swallowed a pip from an orange an orange tree would grow in mu stomach. i swallowed a pip and cried for ages till my mum told me a tree wouldnt grow out of my stomach

My mum always told me I should never eat the core of an apple, and for ages I believed this was because the pips would sprout inside my stomach and I'd have an apple tree growing out of the top of my head.

It was one of my belief that if we ate
some fruit's seed so it would be bad for our health so one day when I had eaten an orange seed I went to my mom crying, and when I explained her that what had happened she told me that a tree would grow out of my mouth and from that day on I never ate a single fruit seed for 1 year.

As a kid, I believed that if I swallowed fruit seeds, the seeds would grow into plants inside my stomach! So I'd be scared to death every time I happened to swallow one.

After getting over the belief that swallowing seeds would cause trees (or plants) to grow in my tummy, I latched onto the belief that it was impossible to grow anything in your body..... until I met Steph. When she was a toddler, she stuffed a bean up her nose. It wasn't too unpleasant at first, so no one noticed. After a couple of days, it began to stink and to affect her breathing. When it was removed at the hospital, the bean had actually begun to germinate.... so I was wrong again!

i used to believe that if you swallow a seed, it'll grow inside your body and up through your head. then you'll be walking around with a tree on top of your head. that's why people don't swallow seeds.

When eating oranges, sometimes I would accidentally swallow a pip - then I would be terrified that an orange tree was going to grow inside of me - and leafy branches would soon start to come out of my ears, mouth and eyes.

I always believed that whenever i swallowed apple seeds by mistake, a tree will grow in my stomach. I was stuck with my belief till i took the science lesson related to stomach acids:)
