That fact wasn't as cromulent as they made it out to be.

ETA: also, the myth about birds exploding by eating rice. An entire generation used bubbles at their weddings instead, in part because Lisa didn't fact-check a myth. (Not complaining about the result though: bubbles are lovely floating orbs of happiness, whereas thrown rice is a messy waste of food.)

    The bird myth predates the Simpsons though. I did hear it was greatly spread by all the churches\wedding venues because they all didn't want to keep cleaning up all the rice.
