In 2nd grade (I was in public school then), there was a blue plastic treasure chest in our classroom that had cheap little things in it. Kids got to pick a toy out when they behaved or did well in school.
One day I got to pick something out! I dug through the chest trying to find something cool. The only thing that caught my eye was a pink, blue. and yellow flower wrapped in plastic. I snatched it up thinking it was a cookie. I didn't know how wrong I was.
When I got home, I took the "cookie" and showed my mom. She thought it was chalk, but I told her otherwise. While I unwrapped it, a few broken pieces fell out, which for me, were crumbs.
Then, I did it.
I took a bite.
It didn't taste like anything and it made my mouth dry. After playing with it in my mouth, I spit it out, thinking back on what Mom had said. I took the one-less-flower-petal "cookie" and drew on our chalkboard.
I knew, then, that it was chalk.

Lesson from the story: Don't eat flower looking cookies from school.
(Just kidding)
Has anything that weird/funny ever happened to you?
