Ha! My mom played the same trick on me, renaming a food. Until I was 18, I thought lima beans were "butter beans", and didn't know what lima beans were. It's not technically cheating, as lima beans are often called butter beans in the American South, but they made the food sound a lot more appetizing. And I still eat them today.
