Is it - even as a child? When usually your education for the food you consume begins. I explicitly remember being confused about it.

I probably had quite a few inaccurate beliefs in general because of this type of terminology.

Another common thing that made me have inaccurate beliefs was the "E" labelling in Europe. And I remember being told that "oh look at how many 'E' (evil?)" substances are on this package.

But also Curcumin, Vitamin C, etc are considered E substances.

So just so many inaccurate ideas all around. And I don't think this inaccurate labelling has helped much if people are unhealthy.
