My brother was like “I’ve never heard of her” so my aunt A said “that’s because your aunt C ate her when we were children and grandma doesn’t like to talk about it because it made her so sad”. My brother asked my mom about this other aunt later that night and my mom was like wtf are you even talking about 🤣🤣🤣
