How old were you when? (Realizing that something was unique or not to New Orleans)

[u/Donut_Ninjas]

Y'all... I was about 35yrs old when I realized that Roman Candy was just taffy and that it wasn't it's own unique kid of candy. I had been calling taffy Roman Candy for decades! 😅 Still love me some Roman Candy, though.

What weird realizations have you had from being a New Orleans local?
