a very popular urban legend here in our country is that if you eat a fruit including it's seeds (e.g. apple, grapes, watermelon, etc.), that seed will grow inside you and the branches of the plant will come out your nose, mouth, ears. I grew up believing that and when I was in grade 5, i accidentally ate a papaya's seed and it scared the hell out of me for about 1 whole week.
my mother then told me that it was all just a joke. still..........
