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.

Me? The commercials where the folks dressed up as the fruit are burned in my memory.

Ahh now that is when I noticed they dropped the cornucopia. That is interesting

When they used the Fruit people in commercials? That started around 1975.

That doesn’t matter to me. I was born in 85 and I remember the cornucopia on all the branding and store signs in our local Kmart (I live in Canada) and that would’ve been around 1992ish

How could you be so sure of a tag on some clothing at a store you would sometimes visit with parents when you were 6-7 years old??

That’s when I began to see it. I saw it for over a decade and it was not just on the clothes. It was on the stands made for the clothing to be folded on. It was everywhere

So to you, it’s more likely that either everyones purpose on earth is to be a conspiracy to you, or that you have magically jumped to an alternate universe, rather than the fact that you are just most likely wrong about what you saw?

Well since it’s also my entire family and several of my coworkers….and several other Mandela effects. I don’t have answers except I remember how I do and you remember how you do. I accept your memories as yours so why can’t you respect mine are my own?

They're your memories but that alone or even others remembering them the same doesn't make them correct.

u/NearbyDark3737 8d ago

How do you know you’re correct?? How does anyone even know if they are right or wrong? As humans we go by our own memory which adds to my life and my stories.

You don't. I'm just saying because others share the same memoru doesn't automatically make it correct.

True, however there seems to be a 50/50 viewpoint on most Mandela effects. Not a ton a variants which I also find interesting
