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.

Bernard Matthews Turkey Roasts...
...those squat, frozen cylinders of reformed turkey meat; we had one for Sunday lunch once. I didn't know what it was, so Dad told me it obvious from the shape - it came from a giraffe's neck.
I was too shocked to realise that there was no indication of a neck bone. But not shocked enough to stop me polishing the lot off. Lovely.
