It’s interesting that when you see them laid out like this you can more easily see the reasons people could have come to remember this way.
For instance, conflating Jif and Skippy as essentially the same product, or getting an association of missing letters from the “eat mor chik’n” cows ad campaign.
Agreed, also by putting so many together like this, you’re gonna have some people who don’t remember it that way. Like the Monopoly guy is half-convincing to me, but I’m pretty sure it’s just a mix-up with Mr. Peanut.
My personal reason for messing up Chick Fil A in my head is because there used to be a different chicken restaurant chain where I grew up called Krispy Chic. Not sure if any are still open, but all the ones in aware of closed down decades ago.
Wait until people watch old shows from the 90s set in NYC, and there’s these two buildings in the skyline. But when you go to NYC, those buildings DON’T EVEN EXIST!!!
The cornucopia was there. I swear on my life I saw it.
I’m now convinced that there was a knock-off brand that posed as Fruit of the Loom for years with the altered logo. That’s the only explanation I’ll accept. Mandela effect my ass.
That is literally how i learned what a cornucopia was. I asked my mom what fruit it was
Think probably what happened is the packaging had the cornucopia on it and it was very large and obvious and now no one has a sealed pack of underwear from the 90s
The Mandela effect is for people whose ego is so large that they believe that being catapulted into a parallel dimension without having noticed is a more plausible explanation than that they’re slightly wrong about something insignificant
as much as I want to think it’s only ego, there’s absolutely no way SO many people independently of each other remember the fruit of the loom logo had a cornucopia
…granted there’s absolutely no way the solution to this conundrum is an alternate universe lmao
I make an active choice to believe I got catapulted into another dimension because that’s more entertaining and interesting than being slightly wrong, thank you very much!
Agent Smith, everybody.
It wasn’t Chic-fil-a it was Chik-fil-A I am From Atlanta
I can see why they would change it. No-one is eating at a place called Chik-fil-A I am From Atlanta, especially when there’s a Carl’s Jr But I Think That’s Regional nearby.
LOL good take
Whats wrong with the febreeze one? They did used to use those bottles, right? I’m pretty sure I have one around somewhere.
The man would have you believe it’s always been Febreze, one e.
Wtf I hate this timeline
The right one is correct
I wonder how much they’re paying you to say that.
Except for a few
Like the cornucopia. Indisputable we jumped timelines on that one.
Looney “Toons” is the stupidest one.
It was always a pun on toons by spelling it “Tunes” and because music is extremely prominent for it.
Especially in the early ones; they were basically ads to sell music from the Warner music catalog.
Missed opportunity for fruit of the loin
Many of these discrepancies can be attributed to regional differences.
A famous example: Was it the Berenstain Bears or the Berenstein Bears? The truth is both, just depending on where you got your books from
edit: fucking nevermind, it’s already in the post

This is false. It’s actually incredible that you could go out of your way to make this false statement, with no supporting evidence.
In my universe it was “Loony”, not “Looney”. There is no e dammit!
I give up, what’s the difference between the two Chick-fil-A?
k
Just the spelling: Chic-fil-A vs. Chick-fil-A.
I have specific memories of how the spelling of Chic-fil-a looked so wierd to me, especially at a mall where the word chic actually gets used.
Me too… Plus Google would correct to chic .
At this point I’m convinced it’s corporate gaslighting. They KNOW there wasn’t consistency because of franchisees, misprints, brand changes, inattentive advertising firms, mistranslations, knocknoffs, and different production lines hitting different specs. But do they own up to it? Nooooo. Apparently the collective society at large just “remembers” it wrong.
Its almost as if these companies keep altering their logos because that would be insane.
I hate this stupid-english product naming scheme so much
