I used to be very afraid of asking for licorice to eat. This is because the way I'd always heard it pronounced sounded like "liquor-ish". I thought therefore it had liquor in it, or at least had some connection with liquor. So I thought I'd be perceived as a very bad girl to want something containing or in any way connected with liquor.

In upstate New York the farmers wrap huge bales of hay in white plastic so it won't get wet out in the field. I tell my kids they are giant marshmellows on a marshmellow farm. My daughter is 6 and she is just starting to question this.

I used to believe that my father was more or less omniscient. If I swiped one or two pieces of candy from the fridge, he knew it! Was he counting them or what?! Little did I realize that my 8 siblings were also swiping one or two each, which signficantly lowered the count of the candy in the bag!

When I was little I used to think you would get an electric shock if you ate the Shock Tarts candy. So I made my sister eat them first.

I used to think that because on the Trix cereal commercials they said "Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids!" that my parents would get in trouble if they ever are them.

I used to believe that Marshmellows grew on trees. In Hawaii no less. I was determined to move to Hawaii and own a marshmellow grove.

When I was about seven I believed that if you dropped a candy on the ground you couldn't eat it but I would always put another one beside it so it wouldn't be alone.

You know those candy rockets? Well I used to think they were pills. I would fill a tiny jar with them and every once in awhile take one or two to cure my "sickness."

Until I was about 16 I used to believe, for some unknown reason that Marshmallows grew on bushes. I remember I asked my my mom which state grew the most marshmallows and she looked at me like I had two heads. We still laugh about that.
I used to honestly think that Smarties were medicine.
My friend used to believe that eating smarties would make you smarter and one day she was eating them at school and since we weren't allowed to eat candy in school the teacher told her to stop eating them. She replied "But they make me smart"
When I was little I was sure that ice cream was sold in the box with the cones. I could never figure out how they kept the ice cream from melting when the cones weren't refrigerated!

I used to believe that if you didn't follow the directions on the sweetarts that said "bite em" or "suck em" that you would die. Thanks to my big sister this plagued my childhood.

When I was small the sweets called "Smarties" had a slogon "watalotigot". I thought this was another name in another language for the sweets. But it actually says "What alot I got".

When I saw a sign saying "Ice Cream Sold Here" I thought that meant they had sold out of all Ice Cream. My mum knew I thought that and carried on pretending I was right so she wouldn't have to buy me any.
