    I'm from germany. Fruit of the Loom is a brand that I've only come across in recent years (about 5 years ago I didn't even know it existed), despite this I can distinctly remember the Cornucopia in the Logo and being mind-boggled once I've found out via Mandela Effect Videos that it does not and never did have the Cornucopia there. Thanksgiving is a holiday which is not being practised a lot here and any equivalents rarely have that specific kind of basket depicted. What freaks me out about it the most, is how the "mock-up" version of the Logo with the Cornucopia depicted is straight up 100% exactly how I remembered it, perfect placement, colouring and artstyle.

SO i went to get the same shirt i got when i was 13 from my closet and somehow the Cornucopia wasn't there anymore. it shook me to my core and i couldnt stop thinking ab it for WEEKS. bc i KNOW for a fact there was one. it is creepy as hell and i don't know if we will ever be able to understand this. but i know every detail of it perfectly bc i looked at the logo sooo much. its a vivid memory for me it was my first shirt from them and i will never forget it.

    The Fruit of the Loom logo is literally the only “Mandela Effect” I have ever felt even slightly concerned about.
    All the others are very easily explained away by human error (common) or weird multiple versions (rare). This… this is the only one that stands out.
    It’s also the only one where I distinctly remember the “other” version. I fully remember that cornucopia, in that exact configuration. Like all the Berenstain Bears and Febreze and monocle Monopoly man ones are “Huh? Really? Whelp, I remembered that one wrong…” but I fucking *remember* that cornucopia. What the actual hell…

    I'd bet you anything it was from Microsoft Word clip art or something like that. I tried finding the collection of clip art from Word 2003 but apparently it was all online, and Microsoft took it down many years ago. But from the depths of my memory I seem to remember papers in elementary school having a very similar image on them, probably printed around Thanksgiving. If so, I wouldn't be surprised if so many people were exposed to it because was everyone likely assigned to write papers about Thanksgiving as a child, and clip-art was the cool thing to use. So kids probably saw it used in school fliers and stuff, if not their own papers. There was probably one top result every time someone searched for "Thanksgiving" clip art so a ton of people used it. Just a theory though, yall can tell me if this rings any bells.
    UPDATE May 2023: I was able to find a copy of the original MS Word clipart database - someone put it on the Internet Archive site, and you can find it if you Google "Microsoft Clipart Collection SVG". On there they also have a link to a searchable page. There are definitely plenty of cornucopias when you search "Thanksgiving". As for why it's still the case for people outside the USA, the cornucopia images also seem to appear when you search "holiday", "fall", "autumn", "fruit", "food", "seasons", and other keywords. So that definitely could have still been it.

      Mandela effect does not affect everyone which is why a consensus will never be attained, on one side you have people who remember things differently and know for a fact their memory isn't false, on the other side you have non-affected people calling us crazy because they just aren't affected so they don't have the same memory.
      These logo's and random things changing are just scraping the surface tho, for me i spent 20 years of my life on one version of earth, and the last 3 on a totally different one. Still don't know why it changed tho, and impossible that it's just false memories, literally impossible, especially since most of my family remembers the same earth i do. Not all tho, which is why it's so difficult for the unaffected people to understand what we're going trough.

    It's weird... after the first time I watched this, I inquired about the _Fruit of the Loom_ logo to my dad while visiting him. Figured since he was born in the early 60's, that he was old enough to give an interesting response, and he doesn't use the internet so his recollection wouldn't be tainted by people discussing the phenomenon. I did my best to not prime his mind, and to let his recollection be his own. He, too, recalled the cornucopia, but here's the kicker: "cornucopia" wasn't a term he was very familiar with. When I talked to him about it, I had to explain to him what a cornucopia was. The term he himself had used for the object was "Loom", as in "Yeah, [that brown basket thing is] the Loom", which makes me wonder if there was some prominent TV show or movie in the past that made a joke about the "Loom" in _Fruit of the Loom_ being a cornucopia or basket. And from there, the thought jumped culturally from person to person until it had infected everyone's mind with the idea. A "meme' in the literal sense. I can almost see the scene and hear the dialogue in my mind, it feels like a natural joke to make. I dunno.

      @the_real_Kurt_Yarish 2 роки тому +75

      @@elielsolares8695 I think that's a reasonable hypothesis. For reference, a loom is a large device that weaves yarn together into a fabric. "Fruit of the Loom" is a reference to how their product is produced using looms. "- is the fruit of -" is an archaic English saying for "this one thing is derived from another", in reference to fruit being from trees. In other words the company's products are "fruit of the loom".
      Even though a loom (or modern versions of such) are vital products to modern society, they are rarely encountered by day to day people. It's not too surprising for even a native speaker to be unaware of what a "loom" is, exactly.
      On another note, I know exactly what you mean by fruit being displayed in a bowl-like glass container, because that is also a somewhat common way of displaying fruit in the US. Though you will usually see fake plastic fruit (for decorative purposes), rather than real ones. Using a real cornucopia to display produce isn't common at all except for maybe on Thanksgiving or similar holidays during the Fall season. Even then, you usually see it in pictures or art rather than an actual, physical one. I imagine it was more common many decades ago, but probably not for nearly a century. Which still begs the question: "Why did their minds go to a cornucopia, rather than a glass bowl or plate like you described?"

It's basically the elements of a composition that guide you through a piece. I'm wondering if people are adding in the cornucopia to help repair the logos rhythm. As of now, its a bit bland. You see the colorful fruit, then you read the logo. But with the added cornucopia, your eyes take a diagonal path downwards (tip of cornucopia to leftmost leaf), and end up at the start of the text. Its a more interesting, natural-feeling line than the original design, so it feels wrong when the cornucopia's missing

    I think it’s possible that the arrangement of the fruit alludes to the existence of a cornucopia. I had never seen the logo before this video, though I’d heard of the brand, and the cornucopia being there just looks *right*. Perhaps there’s some artistic explanation similar to the line of action that alludes to a cornucopia-like shape, and our brains already associate fruit with the cornucopia specifically, allowing for that to take precedence over, say, a bugle.

    While the Berenstain/Berenstein Bears Mandela Effect has never resonated with me (I totally get how kids back in the day looked over the name and forever commit the wrong name to memory, certain that it was always that way), this one has hit me hard in recent years. I swear I remember that damn cornucopia in the Fruit of the Loom logo, I swear it was always there, I didn't need any video to call attention to it, I have clear as day memories of seeing that cornucopia, that seems far harder to misremember than an 'e' instead of an 'a' in a last name.

    Will never be able to convince me it never had a cornucopia. I distinctly remember asking my mom what fruit "that brown one" was at the store in the early 90's, learning then what it was, and then later that same year feeling a childish sense of pride when correctly naming it in class during a Thanksgiving activity. The combination of that proud moment while secretly knowing that "knowledge" was based on underwear (which at that age would have been embarrassing to admit) caused both events to simultaneously register as one significant-enough memory.
