Fruit of the Loom cornucopia EVIDENCE?

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ OMNDOF ยท 86 points ยท Posted at 01:42:23 on January 28, 2017 ยท (Permalink)


Anyways, recently I was watching a movie called, "The Ant Bully." I believe it was scene 6 when the character "Peanut" is turned into a size of an ant while he sleeps. He then wakes up to find out what happened overnight since he noticed his bed larger than normal. He comes across a pair of underwear and this is what it shows. http://imgur.com/dx0F66a[1] Does the Multiverse exist?

As a kid i remember and it did have a cornucopia as i wore them. Plus the old commercials use to use it too, then they made the fruits mascot like characters.

If I remember correctly (and isn't that a funny thought?), they changed the advertising campaign in The 80's when they signed Sugar Ray Leonard and some others to portray "The Fruit of the Loom Guys" in a series of television ads...

I am about to post a huge analysis of the "cornucopia" in general soon - working on the links...there is a Lot going on with that!

100% remember it. I wasn't too interested in Mandela Effect until I saw this and I was like WOAH. Now I'm addicted to this sub and life doesn't feel the same.

My mother constantly tried to disprove the Mandela Effect but I got her with this one. I wore Fruit of the Loom underwear for years and she did my laundry. I asked her what the logo looked like and she said "It was a bunch of different fruit coming out of a cornucopia"

velvert ยท 18 points ยท Posted at 05:30:28 on February 1, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

I asked my mom about this this morning, out of the blue. She doesn't know anything about Mandela Effect or anything. "Hey mom, describe the Fruit of the Loom logo." She said it was fruits with a cornucopia. I then told her about how it never existed and she seemed pretty shocked.

In elementary school one year around Thanksgiving, one of my homework questions involved a cornucopia so I asked my ma what that was. She explained it to me by showing me the fruit of the loom logo, so I know for a fact it was real!

Just found out about this one and it's definitely an ME for me personally. I found some information that I posted in another thread before seeing this one, so I'll paste it here:

Look up "Frank Wess - Flute of the Loom."

The 1973 album's art is a parody of Fruit of the Loom, replacing a cornucopia with a stylized flute that looks the same as the cornucopia that many remember... The question is, why did they choose to feature a cornucopia in their parody design if one never existed in the original design? I'd love to track down the artist and ask him personally.

Also pretty sure it had a cornucopia.

EDIT: Well now I've seen the old logo from the 80s I'm not so sure anymore. It looks right to me without the cornucopia.

I'm not 100% sure but do think it had a cornucopia. I do remember a commercial a long time ago where the men were dressed as the different fruits. They were standing and dancing in front of a cornucopia in the commercial. I remember this because I made fun of the black guy in the purple suit being a fruit.

It definitely had a cornucopia. How the fuck could I be misremembering this one? some tell me, "oh, you probably saw a cornucopia somewhere else and your brain is just playing tricks on you when you saw the logo, it's called confabulation" Really? So many people have this exact same confab? I'm done with this misremembering bs!

Did anyone here actually wear this brand when it would have had the logo? I honestly don't recall anything about this, but it's interesting.

velvert ยท 3 points ยท Posted at 05:26:12 on January 31, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

Seems like it had this back in the 2000s. That's when I wore fruit of the loom.

house03 ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 03:45:32 on January 29, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

I wore these when I was a kid, and I remember the logo changing close to when I stopped wearing them (between sets). I wore these from around 2002-2006, and I'm pretty sure the change happened around 2005.

I'm as skeptical as they come but you got me on this one... I have no fucking clue why I clearly remember the cornucopia on fruit of the loom. I mean, that's all I had growing up.

[deleted] ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 23:03:07 on February 3, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

It 100% had the cornucopia in the logo. I can remember this clear as day because I associated a cornucopia with that brand. A cornucopia isn't an object in common use, so that's why on the rare occasions it came up (probably around Thanksgiving) I would associate it with the underwear. I hear that some people will say, "oh you're just remembering the brand and then at another time a cornucopia and then conflating them." Why the hell would I conflate those two things? They have nothing to do with each other at all. Also, if its true that I'm conflating two different, totally unrelated memories, then how is it that so many other people are also conflating the two? It would be an obscure memory/occurrence unique to me, since there would never be any time that the two would be associated with each other.

I 100% remember this. The only explanations I can think of is their being fruit of the loom knock-offs out there, or, it being a logo change. Can't find any evidence of their being knock-offs. I remember this like I remember the address of my child hood home. so weird.

It also says "Loin."

Movies have to change logos enough so they're still recognizable, but they're not sued.

surelytempo ยท 5 points ยท Posted at 21:12:28 on January 28, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

Yes, I noticed this too. It's always been fruit for me, I wore them as a kid. Those definitely say fruit of the Loin hahaha

Fyi - "fruit" isn't in question, it's the cornucopia (the brown basket thing).

Sorry, my comment was unclear-- I mean it was always just fruit for me as a kid. No cornucopia.

That's awesome. Thanks for posting this. The logo change for Fruit Of The Loom was the convincing point for me. I've torn the Internet up and down for remnants of the logo with the horn of plenty, and the only thing I could find is something that's already been posted here; the article for the modeling agency where they mention the horn of plenty. The logo for FOTL changed for me maybe 2 years ago. Had the horn of plenty my entire life up until then. Thought there was a rebranding, but nope. That's been disproven by the company itself. Someone on another website had made an inquiry to the company, I can try to find to post a source for that.

YayPepsi ยท 5 points ยท Posted at 22:52:05 on January 30, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

It's always been an apple, two grape bunches, and some fig leaves for me. I only remember because shortly after the Fruit of the Loom Guys commercials started to air, there was an interview online with someone who worked for the company. He explained why they had picked those fruits for those logos, it was based on a still life and they tweaked it a little.

Edit: I went looking for the interview, but I couldn't find it. I did find this though http://adage.com/article/adage-encyclopedia/fruit-loom/98480/

I remember a Fruit of the Loom commercial where there were a bunch of guys with costumes of the fruit and one of them was wearing a cornucopia. Anyone remember that?

Ah this thread is messing with my brain, a few months ago barely anyone I talked to agreed with me about the cornucopia and it's good to see other people with the same ME and to see residue that looks exactly like what I remember.

Astartiel ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 06:21:38 on May 31, 2017 ยท (Permalink)

My parents used to buy this brand's undershirts, long-johns & underwear for my brothers, so it was weird when I noticed a few years ago that the logo had changed. Back in the 80's, they definitely had a cornucopia. I'd love to ask either brother what that logo looks like & see what they say.

Also, about the only other way I associate a cornucopia is filled with veggies & grapes for Thanksgiving/Fall place settings. So, why would I associate it with underwear?

Did not believe in ME until this. My mind was just blown away. I remember the change in the early 90's. I moved to New York, got me some new undies and missed the cornucopia. I remember clearly thinking ''the old logo was better''. Now reading this, I guess it's different for everyone. This is scary shit. Maybe, right now, some people are still seeing the cornucopia. I feel sick.
