As we grow up, we hear many facts about things we didn’t previously know, be it in school, on TV or from friends or family. Sadly, many of these “facts” are misconceptions, and I believe that it’s better to know that I was wrong, instead of spreading false information.

The Earth’s core is not super-hot liquid metal. It is, in fact, a 700 mile sphere of iron and nickel.

Monosodium Glutamate (AKA “MSG”) is a flavor enhancer that is actually safe to consume. The symptoms associated with MSG are numbness in the back of the neck and feeling tired are actually more likely to be caused by overeating.

When you use a silencer on a weapon, it will not reduce its noise to a whisper. Silenced shots are as loud as police sirens.

Searing meat will not “lock” the moisture in the meat. It will do the opposite and draw out the moisture. The reason for searing meat is that it gets a delicious and crispy texture on the outside.

Did you know that houseflies live only for 24 hours? If you answered ‘yes’, you’d be wrong. The common housefly will be alive for up to a month.

One Human year is not necessarily seven dog years as each breed ages differently. For some dogs, one human year can be equal to fourteen dog years.
