11. Same, tbh.
I didn’t know baby carrots came from full size carrots until very recently.

12. A disturbing revelation, but okay.
I thought artichoke hearts were from an animal that I pictured as being similar to an armadillo. I thought it was friggen disgusting that people would buy a jar of that.

13. If only pickle trees existed.
I was 18 or something like that when I learned pickles are made from cucumbers. It absolutely blew my mind. I guess I had operated under the assumption that pickles were just picked from trees or something.

Breakfast was breaking the fast.

15. A bit of bell pepper trivia.
That all colored bell peppers are the same, just different stages of ripeness.

16. Oh, boy.
OH! Every map of the US (like the one below) led me to believe that Alaska was right next to Hawaii and I didn’t learn til last week that Alaska is no where NEAR the other states pic.twitter.com/YMFfdo1b9l

17. Wow, just wow.
The Beatles. Never even noticed that it wasn’t spelled “Beetles”. Then it dawned on me “ohhhhh because beats and music and *facepalm*”.
This happened *way* too recently.

19. Patsy Jack is a good friend of mine.
I thought the Wheel of Fortune host’s name was Patsy Jack until I was 19. My roommate at the time informed me it’s actually Pat Sajak after I yelled at the tv screen “Yeah Patsy Jack!”

20. Mizzled, y’all.
I thought “misled” was pronounced “mizzled” to rhyme with “fizzled”. I knew what it meant and if I heard someone say “X was mis-led” I understood that too as the past tense of “mislead”. I just never put them together until I was about 14.
