Have you ever mistaken something for something else?

I went to the food store one day and bought some oranges. When I came home, I discovered that they were not oranges. They were actually grapefruit. : - P

My grand-pa came over for a visit and found some orange slice trail mix up in the cabinet. When he came inside the room where all the family was at, we were a little confused where the orange slice came from. When he showed the bag of trail mix to us, we told him that it was actually potpourri, not trail mix. So, he decided to eat another slice. Lol. Grand-pa was smelling good ever since he ate the potpourri!

So, have ya'll or even someone you know accidentally mistake something that is actually something else?

The times I've mistaken a large lump of ginger for something else when eating Asian cuisine are too numerous to keep track of.

On New Years, I grabbed what I thought was butter to put on some bread. But it had the most bland taste to it. Then I went to go look at the butter and I actually put lard on my bread not butter. The lard looked just like the butter. Urgh.
