When I was little..we went to a circus or something and i got some cotton candy. I left it on the table in our kitchen and the next day...it was all gone.(Someone else ate it) and my dad told me that it "dissapeared" and I believed him...so from then on I always hurried to eat my cotton candy before it evaporated!

Tayler the retard.

The first time that I had eaten cotton candy my dad had told me that it was Peter Cottontale's tail. I felt bad eating the cotton candy and I felt even worse when I discovered that I loved eating Peter Cottontale's tail!

When our family lived in Germany, we would drive by fields with giant rolled bundles of hay that was covered with white plastic. From the road they looked like gigantic marshmellows. Jokingly, I told my 5 year old son that that's where marshmellows come from...fields. Now my son is 14, recently, he has told me that up until he was 10 years old, he had believed that marshmellows grew in fields!

When I was a kid, my grandma gave me and my brother Smarties one time right before it was time to go back to school, and she said that if we ate one a day, it'd make us smart. I can't believe we actually believed her, lol.

all of us know what tootsie pops are. Well you know how the wrappers of many diffrent pictures on them. For the longest time (atleast till I was 10) I thought that if you found a wrapper with the indian pointing his arrow at the star and sent it in you could get a free bag of tootsie pops. Well this led me to rejoice everytime this symbol appeared. Later, while disgusing it with some friends (around the age of 8) I came up with a plan to buy a bag and take all the "winning" wrappers and send them in and then continue the process over and over thus getting as many tootsie pops as we wanted which caused all of us to break out in cheer.

We never tested this plan (maybe cause we just never got to it or possibly cause we didnt know where to send the wrappers) but to this day I dont know if there ever really WAS contest like that though I've come to asume there wasn't none the less I still get a bit of joy regressing back to child for a split second thinking about it everytime I find the "winning" wrapper.

When I was younger I loved cake, but like most children, disliked coffee. So for years, I avoided coffee cake because I thought it tasted like coffee. Little did I know, that it only meant that it is a type of cake that goes well with coffee.

When I was about 4, I had a packet of chocolate covered raisins. Some of the candies had little holes in them where air bubble had been in the liquid chocolate. I thought these holes were from little bugs burrowing into the candies, so I threw them onto the floor. When my mom found about 20 candies on the floor, she was really mad.

My Brother (who was of course older than me) told me that marshmallows were grown from trees. he was in high school and I was in 3rd grade and i believed everything that he said. (he was a high honor student anyways...) he told me that they are from a seed and they crush it very finely and they spin it. don't they grow from trees anyways?

every friday my brother and i would get a 50cent mixture (50 cents worth of lollies in a little paper bag).i remember when mum told me that not every kid got lollies on fridays and this made me very confused because i thought that the whole world did it, not just my family

I used to think "Smarties" were a type of candy that you got if you were stupid. Then they would make you smart.Hmmmm..........still can't figure out why.......

when i was little my mom used to eat jolly ranchers alot...but whenever my brother or i would ask for one she'd tell us we couldn't have them cause they were "mommy candies"...i don't think i even figured out they had another name until i was 9.

I used to no ear cotton candy because I thought that I was eating the angels clouds. If I then ate their clouds where would the angels live?
