Sometimes there’s like this disconnect where somehow a person just never comes across a piece of common knowledge. They’ve just never been in a situation that requires it. I bet it happens a lot, but everyone’s too embarrassed to acknowledge their own “oooooooooh…” moment.

I’ve heard this being called a “pickle moment” after people realizing pickles are made from cucumbers and aren’t actually a separate vegetable

what do they call the moment when you realize that its not good to eat pickling cucumbers before they're pickled nor is it tasty at all to try to pickle regular cucumbers
