Sometimes I think these surveys only survey people between the age of 7-13. I know I'm probably ignorant
about something but some of these surveys makes me have to wonder how was the question frazed and who was asked.
I think so too. If a certain percentage of grown ups actually thought that, imo, they wouldn't even know milk come from cows.
Agreed, I once had a 5 minute argument with an adult that it was biologically impossible for my twin sister and I to be identical. Not surprisingly I realized there was no point and just started shaking my head and nodding. I am also reminded.
The state of our educational system?
When I was talking about popcorn kernels, we were at a midwest Orville Redenbacher yellow corn field with a group of kids and the woman was earnestly scanning the fields to find where the cheddar cheese and caramel variety of cornstalks were planted so she could show the kids. I had to patiently explain how food flavoring works.
Wow, I guess I really did get a good education (or have good parents). I always knew that chickens lay eggs and understood that chocolate milk was originally white milk that had chocolate added to it at a factory.
My weakness on the other hand, is developing any sort of faith in people who are so stupid that they think brown cows produce chocolate milk.
I have a difficult time believing that anyone, anywhere, no matter their age, would believe that chocolate milk comes from brown cows. Nope. It's merely proof that polls are #@$%!

but chocolate easter bunnies do exist, how else do we get those candy?
I come from a family, many of whom have dairy farms. I remember some friends from out of town came over and as we were driving by the milk cows they asked "now which ones are boys and which ones are girls?"
I wonder then if African American babies live off chocolate milk during their nursing phase?
Believe or not I had a student (11th or 12th grade girl) ask me if Black women produced chocolate milk like brown cows do. It was the unit in Psych on Human Development. She was Black by the way.
Thanks for triggering that memory. I don't miss teaching but I did have fun.
