Lies Your Parents Told YouI 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.

Killer Capsicum SeedsMy mum told us that the little white seeds in bell peppers were deadly poisonous and even one of them could kill us. Me and my sisters would spend ages diligently picking out every last one. I still have a morbid fear of them and freak out if I see any left in.
