I’m 51, Fruit of the Loom has been around a very long time. As a child I asked my mom what the thing was in the logo. She said it’s a decorative horn thing but forgot the name of it, maybe my father would know. I asked him when he came home from work that evening, showing him the logo on the pack of underwear mom had bought me. He told me it’s known as a Cornucopia. I asked him what it’s for and he said it’s just decorative. This is a clear memory. There’s no way that logo lacked it

[@BlockCheddar]

The thing about Pikachu's tail is interesting because I brains are designed to look for patterns. We also try to correct things in our minds that seem incorrect or incomplete. Notice that Pikachu has black tipped ears. It wouldn't be a stretch to assume that was an important design point, as it's an area of heavy contrast to the rest of the character who is bright yellow. Pikachu's ears are an extremity of his body, long and pointy, which are attributes his tail also has. It's not a crazy leap to fill in that he has a black-tipped tail-- it fits with the design style. Also, Raichu, another pokemon very similar to Pikachu, and Zapdos and Zigzagoon both have similar dark extremities and even dark stripes on top of their lighter/yellowish colors. Filling in these blanks, even when you've not seen the altered image, is not surprising.

[@MicahYaple]

The first Pikachu toy figurines had a colored tail - I know, I remember buying it from Toys R' Us.

[@gameholddb]

The Pikachu tail thing is more so a situation of "bootleg" products. Cheap/Unofficial toys/comics/games etc usually had a slightly altered design. The most common change was giving Pikachu a black tipped tail either with a straight line or a zigzag pattern. Source: I'm from Eastern Europe and most of our children's multimedia content came from Russia in the late 90s/Early 2000s.

[@Zantigoo]

Raichu actually does not have any sort of black on it's tail either. I thought the same thing when I saw the Pikachu one. What's really wild, is Pikachu Libre, a special variant of a female Pikachu, does have this black shape at the end, similar to a heart. Almost like the artists were trying to do some kind if visual callback to a Pikachu that doesn't actually exist.

[@slawless9665]

I've been in the "fooled" group of people before, but never have I had as strong a reaction of "no, YOU are wrong" as just now watching this video when the Pikachu example was presented. I literally said out loud "no, no, no". I STILL can't believe that I have seen more "official" non-black-tipped tails than ones with the black tip, that either I've seen a high number of bootleg Pikachu for some reason, or that ChillFuel (and/or the Mandela Effect community at large) is trying to sneak this one in there to prove a point. Like, this is WRONG on an emotional level to me. Weird stuff.

[@TinCanBattleman]

[@psychokittytv4530]

The Fruit of the Loom logo is my Mandela effect. I truly feel deep inside that it used to have a cornucopia. When I look at both logos side by side, I literally feel in my chest that the cornucopia one is the logo from my childhood. It makes me shake my head in disbelief. When I was a kid I vividly remember the cornucopia. I actually have memories involving it. I remember it exactly the same way others do. In the recreations its not pointed the wrong direction, or a slightly different color. It's recreated exactly as I remember. Almost all the other ones don't affect me, I just kinda laugh at them, and say "oh that's weird " but when I first saw that people were saying there's no cornucopia in this logo, it honestly made me kinda upset. At first like almost mad. Then it was just this uneasy feeling, saying softly to myself, "What the f--k man, what's going on." It feels a little disturbing.

I dunno, I think I jumped timelines or something.

[@Takoto]

I'm not sure if it's a common theory, but when it comes to things such as Fruit of the Loom, I believe the influence of bootlegs may be contributing. I used to frequently buy basic "Fruit of the Loom" shirts for cosplay off Ebay, and they'd sometimes turn out to be counterfeit with spoofs on the Fruit of the Loom logo inside the shirt or on the tags. The same can be said for Pikachu, a lot of bootleg toys of Pikachu in the 90s would have inaccuracies to the original design (the same happened to other Pokémon, too), I remember having a knock-off toy where all of Pikachu's ears were black plastic, rather than just the ends, which I got in a cheap set of 100+ Pokémon figures. Of course, other factors like human brains just filling in details it expects is definitely part of it too though.

[@fivejedis]

Not saying you're wrong as it's a very good theory but if that was true why has no one found any counterfeit shirts with the cornucopia? Feel like there has to be at least 1 surviving counterfeit shirt so people can put this to rest but none have popped up yet.

[@ozAqVvhhNue]

There are sooo many images in art that include a cornucopia behind fruit that it's almost weird if one is missing. Most people will only ever had a quick glance at the logo before being told that the cornucopia is 'missing'. They then will try to remember the Fruit of the Loom logo and inevitably envision it including a cornucopia. The vast majority of Mandela effects are simple pop culture tropes that deviate from the typical 'tropes' like the monopoly man and his 'monocle'. Or they are easily missed details that don't seem to to fit in the first place like C3PO's silver leg.

[@Forwaken]

At the same time, C3PO's leg could just be a memory of an image or scene with bad lighting (like the blue and black dress thing from years ago), or a bootleg with that change to avoid copyright.

[@itsmytoast666]

Fruit Of The Loom's logo is copyrighted WITH a cornucopia. There's even an old newspaper advert other channels who talk about this topic show and I believe it features the cornucopia, usually shown as "residue". However, the advert comes from the 40s or 50s, or even some other era in the early 1900s.

[@scabbarae]

​@@ForwakenMy theory on the C-3PO one is that, for most of Episode IV, he's either in a desert where everything looks gold, or in a control room where there's no reason to show his legs.

The Mandela effect that messes with me the most is the ending of James Bond where jaws is the villain. Jaws has metal teeth and at the end of the movie he meets this girl and he smiles at her hoping she doesn’t get grossed out by his metal teeth, she smiles back revealing her braces symbolizing they have something in common. But it turns out she doesn’t have braces on when she smiles. I still can’t wrap my head around that one.

[@winterhaydn]

^ THIS, this this. I came here to say the same. I don't care what explanation you give for those other 'Mandela Effects', Dolly's braces is a real head scratcher. And the number of people who remember laughing in the theater about it is compelling. One guy even said his sister has a nickname to this day as Dolly, specifically because she had braces. How do you rationalize that? Or the commercial with a Jaws/Dolly reference including braces. Personally, I found this one on my own when I looked up the scene on YT to watch the funny moment, only to be shocked that it "changed" ... no one influenced me there. They were giant (70s style) braces that glinted very noticeably in the sun. It was a very memorable moment that now makes 'no sense'.

A common pattern I've noticed with stories about people witnessing a Mandela Effect is that they always were kids and pre-teens while experiencing one (such as them asking their relative what that horn shaped object behind the fruits of the Fruit of the Loom logo is). This leads to my theory that since a young child's brain is still growing, it will have a more difficult time processing images and certain patterns, such as overlooking details or creating new ones out of a boredom.

No I remember the cornucopia as an adult too. Seems like the early 2000s still had the cornucopia. I was in my 20's.

[@wbs1O1]

An important detail left out on the Fruit of the Loom logo is the company got so many enquiries they gave a response. In it they even said they asked employees and many of them remember the cornucopia including workers that had been with the company a long time. This is not false memories. There was a more in depth study that had participants describe and draw from memory specific mandela effects chosen and structured in a way to make false memory less likely. Many mandela effects were actually more prevalent than the current reality. The studies comcluded it was statistically improbable to be false memories and was a real phenamon. If you go deep enough down the rabbit hole there is plenty of evidence including verifiable residue from the past. As for causes one of the theories I find the most interesting is one of the creators of quantum computing claims quantum computers interact and at times share processing power with other quantum computers in parallel dimensions/realities. The mandela effect phenomenon was first reported not long after the activation of the worlds first quantum computer and there is correlation with increased quantum computing activity and clusters of people reporting new Mandela effects previously undiscovered.

Psychologists aren't really too confused by it. Things like the monopoly guy mapping to a common ideoform just make sense.

my thought is that human in general make a lot of assumptions constantly even on the level of your vision because it would take to much to actually process everything all the time. every single one of these are something that is a plausible idea. it would not be strange to think that a bunch of fruit would have a cornucopia or that an activist died in prison. typically people dont question their assumptions and it becomes reality for them and people have an incredible hard time letting go of that. you see it all the time when someone has a prejudice against a group despite them often not having those traits

With the Fruit of the Loom logo. I remember as growing up in the 80’s one year for either Christmas or Thanksgiving there was a product that had a cornucopia very similar to Fruit of the Loom. I’m positive it wasn’t Fruit of the Loom because when my mother would buy food for holiday meals she would place them on this one counter in the back of the kitchen to say, it’s not to be eaten, and that product was there. I’m also pretty sure that it was a food product because of it being on that shelf. It was all white with some decorative border around the logo. I also remember thinking that it looked too much like Fruit of the Loom’s logo at the time.

I can't bring myself to believe it's all just false memories. I'm autistic with a very strong memory. I don't fill in details, if I don't remember something then I'll just have a blank spot in my memory. THAT DAMN CORNUCOPIA WAS REAL. I remember my mom buying my dad a new pack of FoTL undershirts when I was in 4th grade back in the 80s. I picked up the package and asked her about the brown basket thing behind the fruit and she explained what cornucopias were. The next week in school we were doing fall arts & crafts, and I drew a picture of a cornucopia and shared my new knowledge about it with my friends. I would not have even _known_ what a cornucopia was if I hadn't asked my mom about it after seeing the old FoTL logo. It. Was. There. Curious George had a tail too. I was obsessed with that little monkey as a kid, I had all the books. Like I mentioned I was a kid in the 80s before Aladdin, and while I did have a Nintendo, I was strictly a Mario girl and never even saw Donkey Kong till at least the 90s after my Curious George memories had already formed. I absolutely remember him hanging from his tail. In fact one of the stories was about how the man in the yellow hat had to call the fire department to rescue George after he got stuck hanging from his tail from too high a branch. The firemen got him down safely and he got a lecture about not climbing so high ever again. I think it's got something to do with other universes bumping into ours or merging timelines. Or CERN perhaps.

[@noiamyourfather1104]

yes people always come up with a fake story

[@-_Nuke_-]

Well you are wrong. Take a closer look at that monkey. You can CLEARLY see that the tail has been added on by someone else other than the original designer. It doesn't have the same outline stroke. You are a prime example of creating an entire false COLLECTION of memories that this designer just happened to be able to exploit by this graphical alteration. Someone, professional. Took time and effort to fool you. Who is he/she? Who created that second version and why? Why are they not coming out to say so? Same with all the other logos. These images didn't just pop out of nowhere. Someone meticulously fabricated them. And they are NEVER mentioned. Why are the names of the people that created these logos both the real ones and the altered ones not cited? Find these people and there's your mystery. Being autistic still makes you vulnerable to being scammed.

[@-_Nuke_-]

Every year in Greek Easter something amazing happens. Orthodox Greeks celebrate Easter at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem on Great Saturday, (the day before Orthodox Easter) Where the Greek Orthodox Patriarch goes inside the tomb and comes out holding a bunch of lit candles. These candles supposedly carry the "holy light" that religious people believe it to have come out of nowhere and secondly believe that the fire of the candles DOESN'T BURN. Search on KZbin Orthodox Easter Holly Light and you will see videos of people waving lit candles under their faces and beards very fast and saying that they can't get burned. --__-- Millions of Greeks remember being there and remembering not experiencing any burns from the Holly Fire, even though the fire is absolutely burning - when you are in a religious trance you can't really be trusted with your memory. Millions of people remember wrong stuff, we are error making machines.

The Macarena Dance is done differently then I remember and it's even different in the music video from the 90s. Another mandela effect that isn't mind blowing but something I recently noticed is in the movie Gremlins. One of the most iconic scenes in the film is when the mom is fighting the Gremlins in the kitchen and uses things in the kitchen to kill them like a microwave and blender. So right before she is attacked she is baking cookies and they are laying on the counter next to a bottle that looks to be cooking spray like Pam. After she is attacked she actually uses the spray on one of Gremlins to blind them and then she's able to get it in the microwave. I always thought that she used Pam cooking spray especially since it's in the kitchen by the cookies but go watch the movie now and you'll see that it's actually bug spray. Why would anyone conveniently have bug spray sitting on the counter next to cookies in the middle of winter? I think that it was Pam at one time and maybe they were forced to change it because it's bad marketing for Pam if people think it can blind you but no matter what I swear it was Pam.

[@IAmFromTheYear]

Okay, this is a bit difficult to explain so stick with me okay? The word 'cornucopia' refers to both the 'horn of plenty' AND any abundant supply of good things. So when someone says "a cornucopia of fruit" it can mean a LITERAL horn of plenty filled with fruit or it can mean just an abundance of fruit (not necessarily in a horn of plenty). For example in the video at 5:10 the newspaper says "their well known cornucopia logo". That's because the assortment of fruit BY ITSELF is considered a cornucopia. It'd be like saying "the festival has a cornucopia of activities". Not a literal cornucopia. It's just describing the variety. That being said, of all the Mandela Effect examples I've seen, this is the only one that actually got me. I distinctly remember the Fruit of the Loom logo having the horn of plenty in it. When I first saw this Mandela Effect, I asked my Mum because she wears a lot of Fruit of the Loom clothing and she was like "no, the logo has never had a horn in it, why would you think that?"

Mandela effect is a funny term for "oops, I was wrong. It never looked like that"

The definition of Cornucopia is (an abundant supply of good things of a specified kind. "the festival offers a cornucopia of pleasures") I'm sure that definition is what the old articles were talking about when they say Cornucopia, and not the basket you guys think it always means. Haven't you ever heard some say a table of food is a Cornucopia of things to eat? And as far as the monopoly man having a monocle, people are just remembering the planters peanut guy. And the Jiffy peanut butter brand, is just people remembering the Jiffy cornbread mix(Both have very similar fonts as well). I believe that the mandela effect is a si op designed to seed distrust in the masses for the system infrastructure, so they will be more likely to agree to its breakdown(Something that people would normally never agree to). Using similar and common items/things in our memory, often the first thing a easily remembered thing, and then add attributes from a still very common but harder to remember thing. You know in the back of your head that you remember these attributes, but they are attributes from another thing or item. These tactics are a well understood phenomenon of weaknesses in human memory studied by psychologist, some of the names for theses memory weaknesses are memory conformity or false memory.

No it's not. Best example is the Looney Tunes Mandela effect in which people remember it written as "Looney Toons" and believe it has been altered afterwards, which is nonsense. They confuse it with the spelling of the spin off called "Tiny Toons". People are just confusing the two.

[@dumbcrumb879]

I always thought it was Looney Toons because its an animated carTOON.

[@Project_2501]

@@dumbcrumb879 Yes, that's what they were intending with the Tiny Toons, featuring teenage versions of the classic Looney Tunes characters and to add further distincion to the original series.

[@applehack97]

not many people realize the Looney Tunes name is a play on Merrie Melodies

[@MoneyBags73]

You are saying our experience of Looney Toons is nonsense and then trying to tell us that we are confusing our memory of Looney Toons with a show that has never existed as your evidence. It has always been Tiny Toon Adventures. God you can't make this stuff up.

@@MoneyBags73 i thought it was looney toons back in the 90s that was after playing tiny toon super Nintendo video game so i know how its easy to confuse the two
