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.

Not my parents.....but when I was very little, my older brother told me that the jelly in pork pies was made from cow spit.
As a result, I refused to eat it - by the time I found out it was all a lie, my hatred of the stuff was ingrained.
I still can't eat it to this day.
