language mix-up

So the other day Simona and I were sitting together having a nice lunch when she asked me about bread in America. I mentioned a few things and then said what I thought was, "It has preservatives." She looked at me with wide eyes and asked me to repeat myself and so I said it again...and then I remembered that the word preservative in Romanian is the word for condom. Oops! I can't remember exactly how I learned that Romanian word, but we laughed a little and I turned 17 shades of red and told her that our bread is not like that and nevermind.
