Wasabi
Maybe a little far from the topic, but a former boss once told me of the time he went out to have lunch at a sushi place with co-workers, including one person who'd never had the stuff before. The sushi virgin pointed at the little lump of wasabi and asked what it was. Boss says, "Oh, that's wasabi. You just pop it in your mouth and eat it."

I believe he left the company shortly thereafter.

Ah classic trick
I told one of my mates it was a japanese sweet and watched as his face turned bright red.
