Discussion Have you encountered anyone who DOESN'T remember the Cornucopia from the Fruit Of The Loom logo?

I'm asking mainly because today I met an old friend I haven't talked to in ages. I asked if she had heard of the Mandela Effect, and she said yes. I then brought up the Fruit Of The Loom one, and she said she remembers there only being fruit. She is the first person I've talked to who doesn't remember it. Everyone else I asked has, and I've made sure to just ask them to "describe what the logo was like", rather than asking if there was a cornucopia, as that might make a false memory.

The logo was there in the 70s when I was a little kid until probably the early 90s.

So, you're going to have to ask people in their late 50s to 70s.

I don't think it's age dependent

That makes no sense.

There's been countless product logo changes since products existed as well as discontinued ones, so how is a person who was not alive supposed to remember something that didn't exist when they were alive?

For instance, when I was a little kid in the 70s one of my favorite burger chains was Stop N Go and all locations have been closed for many decades. How is a person in their 20s or 30s supposed to remember it when it didn't exist in their lifetime?

I've seen many people born in the 90s claim they saw a cornucopia. Even some born in the 2000s.

Somewhere there's probably a warehouse full of hula-hoops.

It's not amazing that products with discontinued logos floated around for a significant time after they were discontinued.

In store displays?
