Lies Your Parents Told You
I once overheard a neighbour use the phrase "nig nog". I asked my father what it meant. As quick as a flash he said, "It's a type of biscuit. A bit like a hobnob." Can you beat this? BTW: We're keeping this thread open for an extra week as we're enjoying the stories so much.

Worms.
I was told that if you made cordial drink too strong it gave you worms.
I held this belief up until I went to university when somebody pointed out (whilst laughing at me) that my dad was just a cheapskate and didn't want me drinking all the cordial too quickly.
