christyn.andrade for Did you know?



I don't know how these fake facts come to be, but people go around thinking that they know the truth about things, but it's all lies. LIES, I TELL YOU - LIES! Most of these threw me for a loop, because I've heard them and just accepted them as fact, only to have my concept of reality shattered when I found out how wrong I was to believe them. Prepare to have your mind blown...


Disclaimer: I realize that I'm generalizing by saying that everyone believes these to be true, and that some people have always known the truth.

1. "Fact": Your tongue has divided parts that are dedicated to different tastes
Truth: All tastes can be sensed on every part of the tongue.

3. "Fact": Coffee is made from beans
Truth: Coffee is made from the seeds of berries called coffee cherries.
