How many fucking memory analogies can Emp fit in one vid? Watch and find out!


I forget the exact context but my favorite use of the word cornucopia is “cornucopia of bullshit”


I don’t ever remember the fruit of the loom logo having a cornucopia...


a'ight. So far this is the only one that works on me. All of these false memories people have generally did not happen to me, but why this one? It's so specific. Oh well.


Bro I remember calling that thing the "Loom"!!!


I never thought an underwear logo would give me an existentialm crisis.


If the original logo had that cornucopia then why would the part hidden by the fruit be separately viewable for this video?


I remember the F.A.D Assault rifle in CoD Modern Warfare 3 having a "Rapid Fire" attachment. And Tainted love being featured in GTA VCS


To all the doubters, can you confidently disprove the existence of parallel universes? because the math suggests they exist.


I could’ve sworn my old fruit of the loom underwear had that cornucopia. Huh.


I used to work at a Fruit of the Look manufacturing plant.
I can say with 100% certainty that in the early 2005-2006 era there were a certain amount of blue underwear that came with a tag that included a cornucopia in their logo. As a matter of fact, my boss’ office had a big portrait of the logo that included said cornucopia. I might even have a few of the underwear laying around, but I’ll have to check.
Part of the reason that the company doesn’t want people to know that it used to have a cornucopia is because I’m making all of this up, and I’m hoping to waste some people’s time with this absolute nonsense. But seriously guys, don’t believe everything you read on the internet.


My only guess for the reason people think that the logo had a cornucopia is Greek mythology. As someone who was raised in Greece I remember around the 3rd grade when we started learning Greek mythology there was a story about Athena or another goddess that brought people a cornucopia that had unlimited food. Most of the food was grapes, apples and pears if I remember correctly. If all those people learnt Greek mythology they would probably confuse the fruit of the loom logo because it resembled something from Greek mythology


This is whack I've never really thought about this logo so I dont specifically remember a cornucopia but the image with one looks so much more familiar than the logo without it


I was born in 2003, I remember the cornucopia, My memory actually works from when I was about 6 years old and foword


I don’t remember there ever being a cornucopia, didn’t know there were people that did


the fruit of the loom brown object is actually just someone else's shit stain shaped in such a way that it adds to the logo.<br>now you all get to suffer with me

now you all get to suffer with me


Jiffy most likely comes from the jiffy corn bread


Holy shit, I've just relistened WarioWare inc. song before watching your vid, and here you are listening to it as well in raycons ad. How's that even possible?


My bet is that there was probably an off brand product that did feature a cornucopia and people mistake their early memories of this off brand for the real product.

If it were simply a rebranding or a knockoff then nobody would be talking about it to begin with. There would be no mystery.. lol

You see, the thing is there is no "off brand" with a cornucopia. At least not one that's popular, and there's a lot and I mean a LOT of people that remember it with the cornucopia. You don't realize how many memories are associated with this that don't make sense unless it WAS there. A lot of people have shared their anectodes online about this if you're willing to research it more ;p


I actually do remember seeing a cornucopia on the logo as a kid


Yeah mine is due to ant bully, totally explained it for me


Cornacopia. I do classical studies and went over the Nile God thise year and used it in my internal and external exams. That word now plagues my mind


Honestly, I'm just wondering why they have fruit for a logo. Was that ever explained?

@Mulan - Jingles e Músicas <br>You know...Sometimes I surprise even myself with my own stupidity.

You know...Sometimes I surprise even myself with my own stupidity.


I distinctly remember this logo with the cornucopia. I can’t believe this is not true.


It would be funny if The Mandela Effect was real, but the only thing that changed was the logo of Fruit of the Loom. Just that. Just the logo.


It's really obvious this is because many people would call a cornucopia a loom...


jiffy could just be a nickname, like tim and timmy


I've never understood the pikachu example, tail was always yellow


SCP-1: force that makes people remember a cornucopia in the fruit of the loom logo


This guy's videos all sound like he's padding a middle school essay out as long as he can


Why did i change my mind about 100 times watching this🤔🤔🤔


3:16 hey I’ve seen this one before it’s a classic


I personally think it's cuzz there's so many realitys and we shift to different realitys every second soo think it's from us shifting to a different reality


What if one day you look at the logo and the tomato is not there that would be a trip


dude im a 14 year old from britain who only ever saw this on school plain polo t-shirts and even I despite not knowing what it was have always ALWAYS seen the basket at the back.

Same it's not like we have Thanksgiving in the UK I didn't even know what that thing was called yet I remember it on the fruit of loom logo


im gonna need some cornucopium after this


This video is so trippy and not trippy at the same time


We might be overcomplicating this a little. I think its just us confusing the logo with clip art images of cornucopias when we had to learn about thanksgiving.


Now I wish it had a cornucopia even though it makes no sense it just looks better idk


Just a misconception. There was no cornucopia


I remember a robber emoji. A guy in black/white strips running with a bag of money in his hand, but I can't find it.


damn am i the only one who has never seen the logo or heard of it?


This is a parallel universe. 100%. Please don’t kill me parallel cat universe rulers


Bro the Government straight MK Ultra'd us on Underwear homie...damn


"the award for most youtube comments generated on a video about underwear company logos goes to emplemon"


Maybe the cornucopia was only on the packaging


i REMEMBER going to fruit of the loom as a kid and looking up at the cornucopia on the building


Man this reminded me of the fact that my mother woke me up out of my sleep because she claimed I was the reason her boyfriend broke up with her because  there was another dudes underwear which where fruit of the loom


Oh wow emp lemon looks like a normal dude. Face reveal ahhhh.


i was wondering if you’d ever bring up the Speeway thing, i don’t even know how i caught it watching that episode


this is one Mandela effect that gets me, i know i remember the cornucopia damnit.


Problem: You got the fruit of the loom logo wrong.

Solution: literally everyone else in the world is wrong except for you because at some unknown point you were transported to an alternate universe where everything else in the world is the same except the fruit of the loom logo.

@Alexia Hoardwing i’m not reading that lol

@Bootthis Nigr Talk of alternate reality is intrinsically linked to the foundation of the question of life and religion. However if you would prefer I refrain from talking the subject to you, I will abide by your wish from this point on.

@jakebun Wouldn't the ideology I mentioned be Agnosticism, not Atheism?

@Alexia Hoardwing WOAH watch out guys it’s a big brain atheist

and just like religion there is no way to know if we are right and no way to show verifiable proof of it being false or real.

The thing is, I asked my brother without showing him the video and he said the logo had a basket. So a ton of people are getting it """right"""" (wrong).


the grapes in front of cornucopias is familiar just not from the logo.


2016: Why are the Simpsons green?

2020: Why is the Fruit of the Loom logo misremembered?


The only Mandela Effect that ever really screwed with me.


I'm just wearing their pyjamas right now lol.


Didn't you already address this in your Star Trek Retrospective?

I love this podcast, they should get William Shatner to be a guest

@Gronn no it wasnt, i perfectly remember it being a video about a company that made storm boards for a sturdier cealing in your house, how can you forget something like that man, that was one of emps greatest videos, it even had a cameo from inernet historian smh

WDYM? I don't remember Emp doing a video on Star Trek.


They should add it and dump gasoline back onto that conspiracy fire


You know what ? I’m telling the next generation that The Simpsons were always green.


Why is EmpLemon green? I hope the Mandela effect isn't tricking my brain...

Its actually not completely impossible for people to developed memories of something that they didn't experience. Some famous examples are from 9/11, where people may remember vivid memories of being there even when they weren't even in the state at the time.<br>It could be that those people saw the cornucopia on something else, then looked at their underwear and their subconscious combined the two without them realizing it.

I feel like this is the first time Emp’s shown his face and I’m certainly not disappointed 😳

There was another time, that was when the Admiral ackbar ytb poop part 3 was released, half a decade ago.


Regarding the Monopoly Man, Jim Carrey makes fun of a guy for looking like him while he wears a monocle in Ace Ventura .


Am I just the weirdo who never thought there was a cornucopia?

You're not alone, I never even knew this was a problem for people assuming everyone knew there never was a cornucopia.


It had a cornucopia on it until someone told me it didn’t. I specifically remember yesterday looking at my underwear with a cornucopia on it WTF


Crazy. I was just talking about this with my classmates yesterday. Conspiracy?

I literally learned yesterday that the logo doesn't have a cornucopia and it still blows my mind. 😤


Turkish knockoffs sold in Romania in the late '90s had the cornucopia.


ok but there definitely was a cornucopia on the logo


Everyone else: it has/doesn't has the cornucopia<br>Me, not even knowing fruit of loom existed: ok

Everyone else: it has/doesn't has the cornucopia
Me, not even knowing fruit of loom existed: ok

I have never heard of it in my life because I’m not American

@Billy Bob most likely because I don't live in the US lol, I've never seen that brand here


I remember the cornucopia on the tag before I even knew what a cornucopia was, and didn't have any way to possibly make connections. What the fuck

now that you can make connections, your memory has been altered


Wait- if it doesn’t exist them how come your video uses the EXACT CORNUCOPIA ART I remember it having!? This is crazy shit...


maybe its the reverse, we see fruits coming out of a cornicopia when and when we see the fruits of the loom logo, we think "there should be a cornucopia there"


8:18 lmao "MAGA: the Mexican American Grocers Association"

Caught that too.  They shoulda sued Trump for taking their branding.


Looney Tunes is called how it is because it was a show about songs for children at start.


8:16 there is a mexican american groceries association and the irony is through the roof.


I always thought there was a bunch of bananas...

i am homer settling for the close enough universe


It's almost like one person got it wrong, and then other people started remembering that version.


Fun fact about black-tail pikachu: it DOES exist in Omega Ruby/Alpha Saphire as a cosplay costume for Pikachu.


I swear there was a cornucopia. I remember, as a kid, looking at it and thinking it was weird.

Same, but I guess we just transferred into a parallel dimension or realm or whatever, where it never existed, it did in the original one, but not this one.


This beginning to this video could also be the beginning of a video titled "Why every programmer is dyslexic"


My dude really looked at a frame from a 2012 episode of Southpark just to show a ten second example


I REMEMBER SEEING THE THUMBNAIL HAVING A DETAILED CORNUCOPIA INSTEAD OF A BLURRY ONE!!!!!


That’s cool and all, but you’re wrong, the parallel universe one, is correct.


what the fuck i had no idea what fruit of the loom was and clicked this video expecting fruitsoftheape100 and got... underwear


Sometimes I take my friend and slap his dog but then I need more information from women

13:20 As if Cornucopia's are only associated with a U.S. American holiday.


Dayum I did NOT see that promotion coming.


Spoiler alert at 10:35, Atlanta Falcon fans get triggered AF. lol


I was agreeing with everything until you told me that the tip of Pikachu’s tail wasn’t black. PARALLEL UNIVERSE IS REAL.


Anybody else know cornucopia because of that Even Stevens episode?


Fun fact if you lick a pair of dirty underwear they mix with a special chemical to make it taste like gummy bears.


I do not ever recall a cornucopia in the logo


I'm about to dig through the whole house to find this logo...
edit: Only found a more recent  item, it does not have the horn...
maybe ill find something else tho.

i'm starting to feel like i'm seing things, are the simpsons actually green or are my eyes fucked?


It’s because every kid my age learned about the cornucopia every fall in 1st through 5th grade elementary.

So...a lot of people are confusing their 2nd grade art class cornucopia picture they were coloring in with the fruit of the loom logo.


Gonna be honest i don't remember the logo ever having a cornucopia

@the gamer fan of fans that's probably why then lmao


It is possible this is very, very important.
   It's also possible that this doesn't really matter.

[Disclaimer: I'm Australian, so I have no idea about the undies brand.]


Better watch this before it gets taken down for literally no reason.


The logo doesn't even look complete without the cornucopia. I'm sick of this cornucopia-less bearenstain ass universe.


My memory is that there is no cornecopea


It’s strange because I’m not American and don’t celebrate Thanksgiving but I’ve also thought it had a cornucopia


All I learned was MAGA also stands for Mexican American grocers association.


THEY PUT A RABBIT IN MANDELAS EAR WAAAAAKE UP


I will die on these hills:

The cornucopia was there.

Nice try kid, but I was already well-written when Looney Tunes was still playing on television and I recall being upset regularly about the misspelling. There are others as well. You will not solve this puzzle with mind tricks. I have tried.

I do remember the cornucopia, but I cannot evidence it.

And before you hide, my parents remember me complaining about it.


who in the fuck are creating these "mandella versions" of the images


Man I tell you there are few people I respect more than emp probably my favorite YouTuber since 2014 I don't normally recommend youtubers but I do ol emp I hope things go well on the downward spiral for emp and everyone else


So interestingly, I had never even heard of fruit of the loom or seen its logo before watching this video; but even I have a vague memory of seeing a cornucopia on some kind of logo as a child and wondering what that thing was supposed to be


Sick documentary. Thanks for another cool video. I've been a fan on and off for a while but I finally subbed because really like the approach you take to your videos: they're just topics you enjoy. I've seen a lot of lesser YouTubers crumble under the weight of having one successful video and then pandering to that video's crowd and you've always actively discouraged that. Good luck with your next video!


Let me just say, I hadn't heard of you until I saw the Dale Earnhardt video a few months ago, and now I'm hooked. Your videos are all individual masterpieces. Greatest youtuber of all time.


Yeah things can change pretty quickly in life and it always fascinates me how another generation grew up in an entirely different environment than me. Its going to feel so weird once Im old to  reminiscine about the mundane things I enjoyed back in my early adulthood. Sadly some things also do get erased from the internet...for example the entire channel of leafy. Honestly, its a shame. I understand that he crossed a lot of lines but channels like his, edgy people just ranting in the developing years of youtube, are cherishable. Although I dont agree with a lot of stuff that he said in his videos, the double standard of youtube who deletes his channel but not others who do the exact same things is honestly frustrating. Its so annoying that everything on the internet and especially on big sites like youtube or instagram is so heavily monitored. The internet is not like the wild west, a free place, like it once was and thats what saddens me the most.<br>I would really enjoy a follow up on the Leafy video!

Yo emp I just wanna say how much I love how you present the videos. How you can deliver feeling in your videos. Your skills in using visuals to tell the story is something you do very well. Idk just wanted to comment saying i love your shit. AND UR YTP's


I think because the fruit of the loom logos used to be just line art with no color, it was a lot easier to see the grapes as a cornucopia. Especially when you see it from far away.


I remember there being a cornucopia from waaay back in one of their tongue-in-cheek commercials.  Anyway, Fruit of the Loom should just throw the cornucopia in because it makes it their logo look way better.


When my mum was growing up, fruit of the loom was a top of the line, fancy and expensive brand


The Mandela effect is fascinating to me. I love to go around asking my friends and family how they remember things and whatnot. My mother clearly remembers Mandela dying back in her past instead of him dying more recently. I've also remembered my mother talking about people who have died, only to find out a few years later that these people weren't dead at all. Of course, my mother saying certain movie stars had died could've just been her making a mistake.

The only Mandela effect I've actually experienced myself was the Berenstain vs. Berenstein Mandela effect. I know it was brushed off a bit in the video as a mistake of people inserting the more common spelling into the actual name, but I disagree. When I was 4, I was learning how to spell my last name. My name has an "ei" in it that sounds like "ee" instead of saying it like the word "eye." As a result, I misspellt all words with "ie" as an "ei" in them because, when I pronounced them, they made an "ee" sound just like the "ei" in my last name.

I'd get cranky whenever my mother pointed out the error, because as a 4 year old, I logically decided that because the "ei" in my last name was pronounced as "ee", it surely meant every word in the English language followed the same rules. One day, when I was still about 4, when I was reading my Berenstain Bears book on my own in my living room, it occurred to me that "Berenstein" despite having an ei in it, still was pronounced with the same "ee" sound, just like my last name.

It's a pretty clear memory since I was like, "ha, that shows you, mom." I've always remembered it since I had so much trouble spelling words because of my last name. I think it's legitimate to believe it as a real Mandela effect.


I remember vividly driving past this apartment complex when I was 4/5 and in front of the apartment is a giant cornucopia model and remember asking what it was and then realizing it was just like the underwear. I understand almost all the other Mandela effects being mid remembered but this one I just can’t


I distinctly remember the cornucopia because I remember we had just learned about it in school (because it was around Thanksgiving) and I was happy I was able to identify what it was as a kid.


I remember a similar "Mandela effect" thing happening with a grade requirement for something at my school. It required a grade of 88 or over, but me and my mother both SWORE it was 87.


Just want to say I really enjoyed your cameo on urinating tree.Most ambitious crossover all time


It did have a cornucopia, I have SPECIFIC memories of seeing it on my underwear when i sat on the toilet as a kid and wondering why they had a cornucopia behind fruit instead of like a thanksgiving setting. That memory is 100% specific and real.


I dont know man...I think even if we had "pictures" of the cornucopia, (just like the physical objects people can no longer find) any video/photo proof we may have had would also somehow change or become digitalized and transmuted into something in which we swore was/wasn't there before. IMO, There is something very strange going on with reality itself that a majority of people are unaware of (many by choice)...but hopefully soon, this will all change.


I can confirm that I referred the word "loom" as the cornucopia in the background. I never knew it was called a cornucopia till someone told me it never existed.


Bags of fruits are typically shown with cornucopia, even if it’s a long and rarely used word. It actually is similiar to the monocle. The name may be hard to remember but you don’t need to associate a name with something to think of it


I normally find these stupid but the Fruit of the Loom really gets me...


horrible, thanks.<br>i wondered if the hannaford (grocery store) logo had a cornucopia that was confusing me but it doesn't have one either (not sure about old versions. does have a triangle shape though). i wouldn't swear on my life about this but i really expect there to be a logo from my childhood with a cornucopia. fruit of the loom's logo also reminds me of thanksgiving coloring sheets i could have encountered (like for a class activity) but that's not a universal experience, especially considering non-americans.

I’m gonna ask my friends and family to draw the fruit of the loom logo. If they try and draw a cornucopia without me mentioning it, then SOMETHING IS UP.


This was cool. I remembered a cornucopia too, but then really thinking about it, yeah, I don’t think it ever was there.


Is it weird that i didnt even know people thought the Fruit of the Loom logo had a cornucopia? I never saw one in the logo, nor do i ever remember thinking there was one.


I remember the cornucopia because i got fruit of the loom at hanaford and they were surrounded by other logos one of which was a cornucopia making me think they were both together


i love your videos dude! but im sorry, i actually do have very vivid memories of Jiffy peanut butter. Your evidence is all reasonable but i had day to day experience with Jiffy and it was definitely none of the examples you provided.


Something funny happened 1 month ago.
Me and my parents went out to buy a new stovetop. We went around the stores looking at them and we saw one that was pretty cheap but I wanted to be smart and said "allright this looks great but... let's keep browsing the stores, we might find something better" and since I don't trust my memory I took a pic so I wouldn't forget the price.
We kept browsing and didn't found anything better so we came back and bought that one.
All well and good, it got packed and it was sealed and when the day it came for me to install it I took it out and noticed it was missing one burner. I looked for it everywhere but couldn't find it "there's no way it was missing a burner. I saw it, my mom saw it, my dad saw it, even my brother was inspecting it just now. There's no way 4 ppl would miss this". I considered the chance of us missing the fact it was missing a burner so then i tought "what a ripoff!!" so I was planning on going to the store and ask for my burner thinking "I have a picture!! I have proof that there were 4 burners in it!!"
So I took out my phone and you may guess what happened. There was 1 burner missing and the stove was on cut price because of that. That's why it was cheaper than in other stores.
Ofc I felt like an idiot afterwards but it comes to show you that you cannot trust your own memory. Not even from a few days before, hell not even from a few hours ago. Your mind will just assume things.

Not even a few <b>minutes</b> before either. Moments after I watched this video and saw the logo so many times, my mind remembered the grapes being central to the logo as well as the apple not existing. Then I remembered "Oh yeah, there was an apple wasn't there?" :P

It would have been a great april fools if you made this video and the logo actually had it, if you could do something similar on another product supposedly with Mandela affect links and present something else as the truth that would really get a lot of people, Brb got to check whether my one fruit of the loom shirt has a cornucopia


I remember there being some type of brown thing there, I am picturing two pieces of yellow-brown corn, but I never really thought about it


We have seen bundles of fruit in cornucopias before, and those yellowish grapes are enough I feel to trick the subconscience.


I've never used a fruit of the loom product but I swear I remembered seeing a brown part of the logo (Also I misremembered it as Froot of the Loom)


I think seeing a cornucopia behind an abundance of fruits or vegetables, especially framed with leaves like the fruit of the loom logo, is also just a natural inferrence like seeing a monocle on the monopoly man. All the cultural depictions of fruit of the loom parodies with cornucopia probably contributed to it.


I swear the cornucopia used to be there but was slowly phased out over time to be more “simplistic”


i don't agree with your claims for why it doesn't make sense for people to have imagined it. i think it makes perfect sense. fruit goes with cornucopias and it adds balance


i remember looking at a pack of fruit of the loom underwear in walmart and just wondering what was on the logo and this has been bothering me for weeks


It's evil...

It's diabolical...

IT'S EMPEROR LEMON SCENTED!


That’s crazy I remember the cornucopia but I wasn’t aware that it wasn’t the logo.<br>It’s especially strange because the logo with the cornucopia is the exact one I remember

The (erroneous) parodies and references are more common in our lives than the original logo. Like how we remember "Luke I am your father" and Seinfeld's airplane food set.


This is fascinating, but just on a psychological level. I guess parallel universes could exist, but why and <i>how</i> would a part of the population suddenly switch to a different universe, where the only difference is one letter here, some logo there? That makes no sense. Not to mention that some of the differences simply  couldn't change; Berenstain is the name of the writer, so for it to be different, something would've needed to changed ages ago, and that would have wide and far lasting consequences. Believing in all that, without a reasonable theory for why it happens and the physics of it all, is far more boring tbh. It's almost like saying "it's magic". I WISH it was paraller universes, but I need more than just belief and faith to get excited about the idea. Memory is such a fascinating thing, and the brain is just beautiful. It's something we can actually study and realistically theorize, I don't understand how people can just brush it off, they're missing out.

i think its because the logo with the cornucopia looks good without it it looks kinda weird so our minds just fill in the empty space thats also why we dont think other just random things of fruit should have a cornucopia because to us those look just fine or not thats just what i think


I literally only know what a cornucopia is because of runescape<br>honestly, a lot of people are likely remembering getting a cornucopia in runescape, being really confused and asking their parents. Idk how underwear would tie into that though. Probably because EoC was coming out soon and both their underwear and runescape were inevitably going to be stained with the most pungent shit ever seen.

I never knew that people saw that on the logo. It's nice to finally be on the other side of the mandella effect


I remembered it as having a watermill wheel behind the fruit


I swear I had a black sabbath T-shirt printed on fruit of the loom that had a cornucopia logo, that’s the only time I’ve ever really seen fruit of the loom...


I don't remember a cornucopia, personally. I find it really interesting how people can remember something that wasn't even there.


I haven’t worn or seen fruit of the loom since i was very young, but i do remember the cornucopia, what if i’m just remembering a shit stain i made that looked like it?


Fruit of the Loom DID have a cornucopia on their shirt tags in the 90s, however I did indeed live in a third world Eastern European country, fresh out of totalitarian communism, so they were probably bootlegs. Solved.


Im pretty sure the berenstain vs berestein one is caused by American television providers spelling it as berestein in the guide


gonna be honest i never even heard of fruit of the loom


Im very sure there WAS a cornucopia on the logo. It's the only way I even knew what it was.
Almost all mandela effects examples people throw are ones I know they misremember.
BUT I REMEMBER VERY WELL THERE BEING A CORNUCOPIA.


12:32

Wasn't expecting to hear Jerma. THE STREAMER who beat Pinwheel ON STREAM.


They for sure had it it’s no way we all made that up


THERE May NEVER EVER BE ANOTHER DYNASTY LIKE THE NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS??????? You kind of touched on it in your smash bros brawl video and this one but it would fit that series perfectly


I thought they took it out of the logo somewhere around 2015, guess I just pointed this out to myself back then


Mandela effect isn’t real. In High School me and my friends literally made some shit up and everyone remembered it as real. I’m pretty sure we were actually bullying someone but even they believed it.


speaking of The Mandela Effect did Wonderbread ever make rainbow colored bread? EmpLemon get on this


tbh the image itself looks more right with the cornucopia. rounds out the image, and leads your eye.


I feel like I’m on drugs how did the cornucopia never exist


The lettuce looks like leaves.
The red, yellow, and purple beside the leaves are autumn colored.
Gives a strong “thanksgivingish” vibe on its own.


my man said fruit of the loom knock offs, don't you know all the knockoffs are already made on fruit of the loom shirts because they're the cheapest.


Legit remember all of my classmates in 3rd grade fucking up berenstain bears, as berenstein bears. So nostalgic.


I was wondering if you could do a video on the consequences of YouTube being a monopoly.


What website is used at 4:51 to identify the hex codes used in the logo?


This is wrinkling my brain, how I Starting looking at the thing and thought yeah that's the sign, I feel like I'm being gaslit


I don't remember there being a cornucopia in the logo, only the fruit. :/


FotL most well known for underwear? In Eastern Europe their T shirts were (and are in nostalgic memories) still  THE shirts with band logos, best for..... IDK how you call them: pics on wax paper you could copy on t shirts with ironing. I had one for about 15 years.


Wait you're telling me there ISN'T a cornucopia in the Capri Sun logo?


The Sun Maid lady is holding a basket so that’s not a great example of unnecessary basket/cornucopia trademark use:/


"Something they see every time they pull down their pants to use the toilet" the weird brown thing we equate with Froot of the Loum is poop


I actually gasped at the 0:30 mark, I hate first realizing berenstain bear moments.


Maybe the real cornucopia was the friends we made along the way.


Rusty doesnt know how to dance in the rain like Ray J


5:05

Was it the CORNUCOPIA that really shot Mr. Burns?


I never really even thought of any of this shit until people bring this shit up. I never would have even been like, "hmm, I remember that logo having X in it!".

It isn't the kind of thing I'd remember. This seems simply like widespread confirmation bias.


The simulation has glitched once again I see.


"We keep making it better, not expensive!"


Perhaps that logo was designed in order to avoid legal trouble


I want to say, I know for a fact that brown thing was in the background. How come it’s no longer there? I used to wonder what that thing was called all the time. I know this?...I know this?...


Pikachu has both a brown and yellow tail tip. One is the design of the male Pikachu, the other is the design of the female Pikachu.


in your refrying dory i always thought that the part you were explaining "use your ears to listen the words that came out of my mouth" i thought there was body parts pngs, at the beggining of the video, I mistook with the ear distorted voices visuALS from the "cringiest cringe that ever cringe"


You NEED to make a video on the lost McDonald’s Ds game


Huh, I didn't know the Pikachu tail one was a Mandela effect, I just thought it only me..


As far as I'm going to think, this is true proof of mandela effect


I'll believe in parallel universes once a Mandela effect reverts after we discuss it.


Bruh it ABSOLUTELY had a fucking Cornicopia, 100%.


damn, I really remember it with a cornucopia.... how the fuck do I remember that?

Before this video: What are you guys taking about? There never was a cornucopia on the logo...

After the video: Holy shit, where the fuck did that damn cornucopia go?!


I always thought the Cash sign $ had 2 lines, It has one. I hasn't had 2 lines  since the 1910's when they actually had bags of cash.

@beanpepper I still write is with 2 lines

people sometimes use the two line version


Sorry guys, side effect from patches in your simulation. Your thread got a little bleak so we had to go back and change a few things in the past. It turns out that Sinbad was not the right man for the job.


Damn that music got me feelin like I'm in a TheRealJims video. Also was that Jerma at the end?


holy shit i knew the ad was coming but it was so good honestly hahahaha


Very cool, but aren't you the guy who made the legendary saga Frying Nemo?


Also to add to this: Counterfeit Brands + Off-Brands / Copy-cat Brands


Was the title always discrepancy? I thought it was conspiracy. I’m gonna assume its just me who’s too used with that word.


take a shot every time he says cornucopia


There was no Jiffy peanut butter, but there is Jiffy Lube


holy crap he changed the channel art. When did he do that?


How is cornucopia a word just about as common as heatwave, what even is that ranking lol


Video was great, but I kept getting sidetracked by those absolute bangers in the background


2:44 you want the crucible, Shaq is the crucible


Certainly doesn't help that it's a visually better looking logo :U


just got banned from [you tuber]'s chat for making jokes and saying a fact that i have seen a dead body luckily emp lemon can chear me up


i have no idea what is different about my brain, but i don't and never have remembered there being a cornucopia.


I don't remember it having one at all lol.


Little brown thing in your underwear that wasn't part of its original design...<br>i guess i know where it could come from

Little brown thing in your underwear that wasn't part of its original design...

Not even watching the video
Just wanted to say
Your not convincing me their was never a cornucopia


Emp could you answer this question do you regret the absolute in cell content you made 4 years ago? I like your content but that shit was one sided


But I remember it drawn exactly as you have it drawn there, I remember it on my dads underwear when he left it on the floor in my parents room


Use the speaking of the words “downward spiral” from the movie Easy A. I’ll leave it up to you to find it. I don’t know how else to send this message.


I have a test tomorrow and need to go sleep, but here I am watching a conspiracy video about an under wear logo


"Memory is a lot like underwear" - EmpLemon 2020

"Sometimes they're not the cleanest and sometimes people use them with a skid mark." -Possibly in the video


I swear it was on the knockoffs got a bunch of random wrestling t-shirts on holidays when I was young and remember the cornucopia


I recognize the half in the bad music, you hack fraud. - subscribed


I feel like spongebob is full of these mandela effects


I can't even count on my own eyes for my own typing like 99% of the time.


I can't see that money without hearing "BBBUT MUUUUMKEYYY"

Boy...I hope someone was fired for that blunder


Man.....it sucks that this is the kid responsible for gate-keeping and attacking my man, Behind the Meme.😒


Last time I was this early, Emp was still uploading Incredibles YTPs.

I wish he made a YTP today but that’s never gonna happen


the logo just looks wrong without the cornucopia :(


W h y   i s   t h e    E m p l e m o n   g r e e n ?

I think he was going for a yellow skin tone like the Simpsons. Hence the live action Simpsons clip at the end.


I remembered cheez-it as cheez-itz but yeah


Bullshit I've definitely seen it in unless 1 ad from a fruit of the loom


im here because vinny told me the cornucopia was never there


i see this weird triangle with an eye on the top in all kinds of movies, tv shows, music videos, video games. anytime I point it out, I'm told to stop that or that I'm a conspiracy nut or why does it matter? Its weird though because everyone else sees it too...


Is this just a massive advert for fruit of the loom


Mandela Effect Instance: Rusty Cage was never actually in this video.


If a version with the cornucopia does exist, then the knock-off theory is probably the most plausible. I could've sworn I've owned Fruit of the Loom underwear in the past that had the logo on it, and the fact that versions of it with the cornucopia exist in parody means that it either had to have existed at some point in some form, or that the version with the cornucopia is a copyright-friendly version of the logo that's circulated in our media for decades (which would be why that image has instilled itself into the memory of the public consciousness; IE - its a meme).

So it's either that, or parallel universes (which we know is probably bullshit). I don't know how someone could just "misremember" something so distinct, let alone millions of people collectively misremembering such a distinct object in the logo.

This isn't like the monopoly man missing his monocle, Curious George missing his tail, or the discrepancy of how the Berenstain Bears is spelled (that probably formed because children probably thought "stain" was how "stein" was pronounced when they were younger and were learning how to read, and they associated that memory with the Berenstain Bears since its probably the first real instance where they read "stain" and "stein" [after all, English is a pretty complicated language compared to something like Spanish; god knows i wasn't super great in English during high school either, I only started to really give a shit about my writing once I took English Comp in college]).

This is more like how people believe that Parallel Universes have moved the precise location of the Statue of Liberty (yes, that's a real thing that people believe, and they have a good chunk of "evidence" of people in pictures tagged #statue_of_liberty or #liberty_island or some shit where they're either just posed in front of the city or they're posed in front of a flagpole).

Thanks. If you hadn't done that he would have never posted again. It's all thanks to you.

Same... we must have switched timelines at some point

@Egg T im not a youtuber just a guy with a cool badge


you're about to get me to watch a 15 minute video about underwear and enjoy it.


Remember that time we saw Captain Underpants?


this is crazy i could have sworn there wa da cornucopia


1:54 - 6:46 sounds like I'm watching Simpsons Mysteries


I wonder how much more popular this video will make the word "cornucopia" on wordcount .org


Maybe the real cornucopia were the friends we made along the way.


All of this analysis.....
For an underwear company.

In all seriousness this illoominated my mind.

"Mr. Monopoly" is not the name of the Monopoly guy. His name is actually Rich Uncle Pennybags.

Imagine having “Uncle” as a middle name lmfao


Looking at the comments first, i refuse to watch it, i wanna believe there is a Cornucopia in the logo, ill stick with that...


Wait, you mean there was no cornucopia?

EVERYTHING I KNOW IS A LIE

Wait, you mean there was no cornucopia?

10:06 Well, yes, but actually no.
(If you don't know what am I talking about, look at Pikachu in ORAS)

He was refering that some people believe that the tip of Pikachu's tail was black since the 90s, and not only the Cosplay Pikachu, but the normal Pikachu too. <br>I used to believe that the tip of Pikachu's tail was black when I was little because I used to watch a lot the Pokemon anime in my childhood, infact, I have a Pikachu keychain from my childhood and somehow, I remember the black tip on it, just for one day, wake up and realize that someone erased the black tip, leaving the tail entirely yellow. What a big surprise I had when I discover Pikachu's tail has always been like that.

I think this is probably solely a result of people asking the question "does the fruit of the loom logo have a cornucopia?" and then the person asked hasn't looked at their underwear so they say it to agree.


Mandela Effect, huh more like people dont want to admit they're wrong-effect

Pretty much that mixed with brain’s autofill properties


My best guess is that somewhere someday somebody bought a knockoff with the Cornucopia logo. I mean, if you look hard enough I’m sure you can find Adidas Jordan shoes.

But for fruit of the loom? That's the cheapo brand everyone got back then. knock offs work for premium items, why knock off something that's already cheap?


8:18 Mexican America Grocers Association (MAGA) lmao the irony. Did not age well

What do you mean? Because of Trumps immigration policy? At the end of the day they are an American based company and aren't negatively effective by Trumps policies so I don't see the irony or how it didn't age well. I would say it did age hilariously well.


You read “Subliminal: How Your Unconscious Mind Rules Your Behavior” didn’t you? ;)


EmpLemon video. Stuff it in the cornucopia.


We all won the "open youtube at the right time" game


Tfw when all your underwear is Fruit of the Loom or Michael Adams because Calvin Klein is expensive.


Only a verified channel can say something simple and insignificant as "wow" and get 600 likes.

Wait a minute aren't you the guy who made those plushie mario adventures like a decade ago?


can someone pls tell Mandela to stop effecting us


does anyone else remember seeing this logo in that one kids movie "ANTZ" ?


I know for a fact there was a cornucopia in this logo. I'm 17 and I remember it vividly. Unfortunately there's always gonna be skeptics and deniers who think they know more than we do.. Like shut up you don't know what we saw or experienced lol

I can't really remember exactly when I last saw it, but I'd say it was in the past 6 years at the latest, like maybe around 2015? Or 2014? Somewhere around that timeframe (That also happens to be around the time the Mandela Effect started becoming mainstream, oddly enough)


Emplemon is making me interested in the logo of an underwear brand.

At this point, Emp can make paint drying and grass growing interesting.

He can make a Quinton Reviews interview bearable.


ok, great video and all, but
0:53 who the FUCK thinks New Zealand is in that spot and can I interview them


Plot twist: the original cornucopia is actually another fate of the mandela affect -- it was originally a watermelon.


8:23 Mexican American Grocers Association? So that's this "MAGA" thing I've heard so much about!


Mandela effect YAWN Mandela effect is just proof that people can’t accept the fact that they’re wrong


Stop gaslighting us we all can’t be making it up


nah b i absolutely remember shazzam with sinbad.


You wear ur underpants the front way if I see the logo every day


I bet they did it on shirts but not undies or something like that


Lucie’s Guard [8th Apostle of the Twelve]


I really do not like that thing with the yellow balls.


@Bidybabies Do you really thing the average person inspects their underwear so closely that they'll tell the difference between some brown leaves and a cornucopia? I think if you imagine the leaves as a cornucopia, with the wide end on the left and the point on the right, it does look very much like a cornucopia when it's shrunk down to the size of a tag. It'll especially look like a cornucopia when put next to a pile of fruit.

If you think we mistook some leaves for a cornucopia then you're probably dumber than we are. I mean yeah they were brown but the problem is they're not cone shaped like a cornucopia lol

Also some of us didn't grow up with the old logo so there's that. Some of us remember it specifically in the modern logo, which has green leaves instead of brown. So the brown leaf explanation becomes flawed for anyone that was familiar with the modern logo


Trash Taste brought me here! You have a sub from me dear sir!


It had the cornucopia. BerenSTEIN bears.


So...... Ever think that maybe, just maybe, there's something else going on? Arbitrary things like logos and that, who cares if they changed or not, in the end wholly inconsequential. So..... What about things of consequence?


C-3PO has a silver leg! I shit you not google it.


not u gaslighting us into thinking we weren't time line swapped


your channel is probably one of my favorites in terms of its character development


Okay, I’m no fan of the Mandela effect theory, but I vividly remember spending a good 20 minutes looking at the fruit of the loom logo as a kid. The basket was there. Some of the recreated images here were very close, especially the colorless line art.
Also we named a dog jiffy. I had always thought they were two different brands and jiffy went under.
Would love a logic based and resin bound explanation for these. Based on reality of course.


Blessed enjoyment of yet another well-written content. Goodspeed Emp!


I think the confusion comes from the brand name itself. On the logo we see the fruit, but where's the loom? Looms and cornucopias are both objects that we associate with the 18th century, so people just substitute the missing loom with a cornucopia because it makes more sense than an actual loom. Add this false memory into works of popular media, and it's no wonder why so many people remember the logo with a cornucopia now.


I remember the tip of pickachu's tail always being solid yellow. I've never seen it black, but some old Tcg art and figures has the tail brown tipped

Yeah it’s probably a mix of that and Pichu’s tail would be my guess. I remembered it as black too, I specifically remember making Pikachu pixel art in Minecraft, looking up how to make it, and then finding out it wasn’t black but I decided to make it as black anyway because it looked better.


I think maybe the fact that the fruit from the logo has a similar layout to what you would expect from a cornicopia. Plus a cornicopia  would it perfectly behind the fruits, and it would round out the color scheme. Honestly I sort of remember the cornicopia and the lack of it. I think it's because your brain, when not paying full attention tries to fill in information and sometimes fails.


I never remembered a cornucopia, and I think there's some points in the video that are a bit too glossed over. Namely, the Capri Sun point is flimsy at best. The art style of the Fruit of the Loom logo combined with the way the fruit looks like it's spilling onto a table or other flat surface resembles a lot of old fall clip art you would see back when that logo is being remembered. It's pretty common to see bunches of fruit with a cornucopia, and I think that's just what's happening here. I think people's memories about asking their parents about a cornucopia probably happened, but they either misremember it having to do with that specific logo or had already developed the misconception when talking about it. I just don't think it's that far-fetched to add a cornucopia in mentally, it's a background detail more similar to the Monopoly monocle than the video gives credit for.


not sure if this applies to anyone else, but when i was in grade school during autumn my teachers would print colour-in pages as a sort of art-assignment to do, and it would always be a bunch of fall fruits, like pumpkins, apples, grapes, and some leaves with a cornucopia in the background.

maybe some people are mixing up similar colour pages with the fruit of the loom logo?


I actually remember the cornucopia as late as around 2015. This is the one that got to me the most, because I actually remember paying attention to the Fruit of the Loom logo. I actually thought that the removal of the cornucopia was just a design change.


I remember the cornucopia. I just assumed they changed it to make it easier for the computer to print a boatload of. I also remembered the movie being Shazam and starring Shaq as the genie. As a kid I assumed that was how Shazam was written in middle eastern. I know now it's called Arabic. I also remembered the monocle, but thought they changed it for the same reason as fruit of the loom.


I just love how reality is made by humans but unaffected by our memory.

This kind of mental plays is what makes me think we've just made up everything because it make sense.

I feel we didn't discover math nor it is the universal language, it's merely the translation we made up to fit our reality, Science is just the best we can do to explain something we will never be able to. We mutate or theories to fit any change we perceive but don't consider the fundamentals are wrong.

But when the fundamentals are on play, even Science people rather go to the "PARALLEL UNIVERSE" argument instead of questioning the bases of all understanding.


I lived near a store that had a fruit of the loom logo on the side of it and I remember asking my mom about what the brown thing behind it was and she said it was a cornicopia. We both remember that like it was yesterday.... Creepy


I don't remember it with a cornucopia. I used to work for Fruit of the Loom at the corporate HQ until October of this year and even the pictures hanging in the corporate office and the samples of clothing designs were sans cornucopia. So I can say I'm pretty sure it never existed in this reality.


The first time I remember seeing a cornucopia was around kindergarden when learning about the not-at-all-violent origins of Thanksgiving so that's probably where this particular.. thing, comes from.

Or the logo with the woven cone was a bootleg brand and we were too dumb as kids to know that.

This has an explanation just like the other Mandela effects you described. There are other fruit logos with a cornucopia (seen on boxes of fruit in grocery stores) with a similar art style and that must be what people are mixing with the fruit of the loom logo


I seriously wonder what people who dont forget their memory think of the mandela effect. I think it would perhaps either prove or disprove this whole Mandela effect being glitches in the matrix. After all, if they remember every single thing that happens in their lives 100%, then they shouldn't ever have any Mandela effect instances happen to them, because they are mess ups in our memory.


can we talk about how far emplemon has come in a few years?


I'm starting to wonder if Emp's channel banner is arranged chronologically, or if it's arranged in how open and blustering the mouths of "leadership" are.


You could literally talk about a chair for an hour and I would still listen till the end.


I remember seeing the logo as a child and thinking that it needed a cornucopia, if not for that memory coming back to me I'd be under the full influence of the mandela effect


I think most cases of the Mandela Effect can be explained by Pop Culture references and media portrayals.

We see the logo so many times in movies and TV to where it's just close enough to trick us into thinking it's the real deal. Might even be unintentional, they have to dodge copyright, after all.


It's just like the monopoly man's monocle. Here's a scene of fruit layed out, how many scenes of fruit have a bowl or something to hold them in? A cornucopia may not seem like an everyday item, but it's culturally significant, at least for Americans. How many of you colored in that exact scene in grade school? Thanksgiving day, draw everything your thankful for and put it in this cornucopia. It's practically been ingrained in the social unconscious and from a young age as well.


I think it's because the leaves in the background of the logo used to be brown, so when you see them as green in the modern logo it feels like something behind it is missing.


Wait- I never imagined EmpLemon having that IRL appearance.


I remember the Berenstein Bears SONG, and books, from the PBS, cartoon, I think. I'm not a conspiracy theorist but it's very strange this is such a debated topic that several people remember so vividly, because I thought I was an outlier or it was a joke that it wasn't "Stein." So did almost everyone I know. Probably fallible memory, sure, but... Many South Africans who suffered from Apartheid say Mandela died in the 80's in prison. <b>That</b> blows my mind, because I also remember learning about him dying in prison in highschool, in 4th mod Social Studies, Mr. Charles. Things are strange. There are anomalies we don't understand, I'm not going. To concede to either possibility, because I try not to be paranoid but then again debating universal continuity with no "proof" sounds insane.

Someone recorded Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back when it came out in movie theatres in the 1980's and Darth Vader did actually say "Luke, I am your father". When I watched that video, it actually blew my mind. I can't seem to find it anymore, but it makes me believe these corporations purposefully do switch their logos without telling anyone and get rid of any evidence. Not all of them, but atleast a few.


The town where I’m from had a local grocery store that had a logo that looked like the fruit of the loom logo, so I always thought fruit of the loom owned some random grocery store


I don't believe the cornucopia was ever there and can't remember ever explicitly seeing a logo with it, yet the version with the cornucopia just feels right. I think it's because the cornucopia has the same art style as the fruit and doesn't stand out as something that obviously shouldn't be there (e.g. the knockoff where the cornucopia takes up 60% of the logo space). Additionally, the logo of an underwear company is one of those things that everyone has seen, but virtually no one would have put in the effort to memorize it.


It might not have to do with fall time vegetables/fruits but the shapes being round.


I think the art style for the logo looks like kids' coloring sheets we'd do around Thanksgiving with lots of fruits in them. Maybe that's what put the idea in peoples' heads and it would explain why it's remembered from peoples' childhoods?


A buddy of mine and I have been binging jerma streams and hearing this 12:33 after taking a break kinda freaked me out


I’m old enough that I remember the 70’s and I definitely remember the cornucopia. I also remember berenstein as I was fascinated by the name and had multiple pronunciations in my head.

I remember think it had an st sound or scht sound. So I had stine shtine steen or schteen. Never did I se an A in their.


Honestly, I think the reason so many people remember the cornucopia is because of the logo art style. <br>The art style is just so similar to old timey illustrations, and I dunno, it just seems like that’d be a factor

12:31 Well that sure is nostalgic.  I refuse to believe that was from 6 years ago.


I know about Pikachu, Pikachu's ears are black at the tip, when you try to draw it from memory you paint the tail just like the ears, also considering that the beginning of the tail is also dark, one thing tends to be mixed with the other


It's more than likely due to the overwhelming presence of Thanksgiving imagery in early development, marketing, and advertising which has the same set-up with an overflowing horn of plenty. Mandela effect takes over.


The funny thing about the berenstain bears thing, I don't recall anyone ever pronouncing it "bear in stain"... Growing up we called it "bear in stein". Or "steen"... The justification for the spelling just being misrecognized, seems odd. I just think they remember everyone's struggling to pronounce the EI lettering, and either over or under emphasizing the e.

Although I'll say the justification as a transfer to a different universe.. is um... A bit to unfalsifiable to me.


I really like the analysis on the significance of  mandela effect.


I've never heard of a cornucopia, and still don't know what one is, but I remember something like that being in the logo 😂


I think some of my Mandela Effects that are mainstream came from hearing about them from people. Like I never cared enough about them in the past to be sure on how they looked so I'm asuming I was filling in the blanks and I thought I remembered wrong, doesn't explain my unique/mostly false memories though


Wow it has been 7 seven years I've been watching this man and this is the first time I've seen his face


Until you made this video I had never noticed that the logo didn't have a cornucopia I was born in 1994 I remember it being there I learned the term as a grade schooler because of the logo asking my parents.


This is clearly the proof of a time machine


Never personally associated fruit of the loom with a cornucopia


How come I never remembered a cornucopia in the logo, When I was younger I always thought that The Fruit of the Loom logo looked similar to The Olive Garden logo in my head.


Even if the cornucopia isn't real, it makes the logo look a lot more complete


I would have gotten all of the mandela effect items wrong if I had to recreate them


one of the most salient M.E.s  for sure; though because it's something far more paltry than the car JFK was in it's typically laughed off when cited as evidence for said phenomenon


And on the topic of the logo, I swear it had several other fruits in it and maybe a Cornucopia


For a sec I thought this was going to be a video about fruit of the loom scamming someone or something. 😅


I’m actually fairly certain that there was a cheap european toy company with a very similar cornucopia logo


0:31 I don’t know why but I started laughing and crying uncontrollably


We had to draw company logos for an art class when I was in elementary school, I remember because I fucked up the cornucopia I was supposed to draw. I also had the tag for my shirt at the time in front of me, which is what I was trying to copy.


Wow, Emperor, way to make your video title the same as a Big Bang Theory episode.


i remember the logo having the cornucopia as a kid before i even knew what a cornucopia was. honestly thought it was rope or bread


big fan, but i feel like this subject has been covered by too many people and found it hard to even finish the video.


I don't remember a cornucopia in the fruit of the loom logo, but the real logo does look off. I thought there was a banana or orange in it


I remember the Berenstein Bears, I remember the Cornucopia, and so much more


As someone who has never heard of 'Fruit of the Loom' I really thought the title was just a bunch of meaningless words lmao


it definitely had a cornucopia, the first time I saw one was on the underwear package


*_I remember seeing a basket instead of that "cornucopia"_*


the logo reminds me of old Thanksgiving art with the pilgrims/ natives


No there was Sinbad as a genie. Look it up. I watched it on when Netflix was sending discs and movies in the mail. I know that movie was real I loved that movie. I know I seen that movie.


Disregarding the mandela effect, the cornucopia logo just looks better. Any brain trained on a left to right language is going to read the leaves, apple, white grapes, and purple grapes as downward tilting or "negative". An upward tilting, positive cornucopia balances the rest of the image (and adds a warm neutral to rest your eye!)


I remember it with a cornucopia as well.


kitkat hyphen can be explained in the white background version, between the letters "T" and "K" a square space is formed.


You are the only reason I thought about a cornucopia in the last 2 reasons  man,  I have never thought that was on the logo anyhow.


The pikachus tail being black one sorta makes sense because on female pikachus they have a black heart at the end of the tail

Oh never mind, it's not black. I guess the world changed


Something kinda relating to this: The Beach Boys have a song called Vega-tables and there’s an early version of the song that is referred to as the Cornucopia Version, with lyrics relating to a cornucopia. Thought I might just share that


Really thought this video was gonna say the reason it was removed was because of some leftist thanksgiving outrage. Goes to show you how primed to prepare for people being offended the internet has made me.


Things i remember:
 All the words to the Ultimate Showdown.
That is all.


I genuinely can’t tell if this video is gaslighting or not


I have a distinct memory of me looking at the tag as a kid and seeing a cornucopia


isnt there a crap ton of old pictures of horns of plenty that are stylistically to some iterations of the fruit of the loom logo?  as in they have the wood block print with flat colors look, alot of boomers and the like would have grown up seeing that stuff in decorations for halloween and thanks giving decorations as well as old books.


it’s not a face reveal because it’s green emp, also the first face reveal at least to my knowledge was hungry box reacting to the doc emp made on him.


im pretty sure there was an add on tv in the 2000s that had a cornucopia in it during thanks giving and had it fade out with the background as the logo was put in focus. weird knowing this kind of  though is constructed


This reminds me of how everyone remembers the brand name Niveá when it is actually Nivea, I swear that I could remember putting Niveá sunscreen on my belly as a kid but not Nivea.

Jk, I just made that up, but I'm sure that this has fooled a few of you, that's all the "Mandela Effect" is. It is bringing in fresh information that overrides that old memories that you had, I'm sure you never thought of Niveá until I pointed it out, but once your brain has your past memories overwritten you are incapable of remembering Nivea without the á. (This is helped immensely with use of a photo shopped image, and since I lack one the amount of people that I tricked is much smaller)

This is what every instance of the Mandela Effect is. It isn't an effect it is just an illusion, there are no parallel universes or anything there is only your shitty memory.

People only swear that they can remember a cornucopia because after they saw the photo shopped image, their brain had added a cornucopia to every past memory of Fruit of the Loom that they had. Your brain also would have created completely false ones as well because that's just what it does, your brain will stitch together other memories into a whole new memory, (this is also how dreams are made). You also shouldn't be surprised by this fact either as your brain at the end of the day is a flawed hunk of meat that didn't have any evolutionary pressure to remember tiny unimportant details.

Please don't buy into all this pseudoscience, even if you can't disprove it yourself, lack of any evidence is always a good reason to know that it's bullshit.

Mandela never died in prison, it was always Berenstain Bears, there is no monocle on the monopoly man, and there was no fucking cornucopia. The Mandela Effect is just some stupid trick that hides behind the shield of 'effect' when in actual fact there is no Mandela Effect there is just our shitty memories.

The Mandela Effect is the equivalent of me making some spaghetti epidemic by putting up pictures of spaghetti everywhere, sure its a real thing that people are experiencing but there would be no spaghetti epidemic if I just stopped putting pictures of spaghetti everywhere. There is no Mandela Effect when people stop making up false memories and spreading them to millions of people along side convincing photo shopped images.

ok rant over time for bed gn.


Without the cornucopia, the logo is a bunch of fruit. With the cornucopia, the logo is a Unit.


Hey emp, can you do a video about deja vu's? I have a LOT


Hello Emp, you should make a video on Alex Trebek


The Jerma TF2 twilight zone was a nice touch


I’ve never heard of this company but I do remember the cornucopia

I remember my family had these magnets on their fridge


I call it proof of the matrix being rewritten


Maybe knockoff fruit of the loom had a cornucopia


This reminds me of paradox between barenstein bears and bearstain bears


KIT-KAT was spelled with a dash "-", your not crazy


Huh,  never thought I'd be the victim of the Mandela effect, what a bizarre thing to misremember


Wait. So your sayin’ there wasn’t a cornucopia behind the fruit?


I never remember it having one personally.


The f in the Ford Logo is the one that always gets me.  I swear that little curl was never there.


I too believed it had the cornucopia but I guess not


There’s probably a similar logo everyone is confusing it with


Fruit of the Loom?

STUFF IT IN THE CORNUCOPIA

Fruit of the Loom?

*STUFF IT IN THE CORNUCOPIA*


As far as I remember, there was a cornucopia


I remember Frying Dory had a cornucopia in it


I just noticed the yellow grapes on the bottom are not grapes but currants


That red letter media bit is appreciated.


I thought it was there because the art style looks like it would fit one


some pikachu tails are actually black with a heart shape so, it's not too much  out of the question. I also thought there was a cornucopia so, ty for making me seem dum lmao.


I cant be the only one that never remembered the cornucopia


I dont ever recall a cornucopia in the logo honestly


The cornucopia existed before you watched this video


Man i never remembered it with a cornucopia wtf


to thoes in the UK oddly remembering it also haveing a cornucopia dispite them not really being a thing in our culture
chances are its because they manufactured your school uniform
and do you remember clip art on old mid 2000's word, powerpoint and publisher
one of the first images to come up on that was a horn of pleanty
thats why you are putting the two together


There’s a restaurant in my city called the Cornucopia


Woah wasn't expecting a Jerma reference right next to a redlettermedia reference


how do people think pikachu had a black tip on its tail??? that would look so stupid


Imagine having a company be tainted because you use similar acronyms to MAGA Feelsbadman


I always thought there was a pear in the logo


I actually don't believe the cornucopia existed, however I believe "Looney Toons" goes as follows. Which is apparently untrue.

i remember kit-kat being on older packaging but apparently that seemingly never happened either.

Changing the Narrative, I see. Don't think I won't be fruiting your looms with a cornocopia in the future, boyo.


there will never be. When's the next one?


bad news boys, the cornucopia is a stock image. A guy just edited the Fruit of the loom logo to gaslight idiots on reddit


Wait wasn't this channel called EmpLemmon?


Ngl I also remember it with a cornucopia but I'm not exactly sure as to why I did...


5:25 ah but not I...

RESEARSCH LOOOOOM!

5:25 ah but not I...

RESEARSCH LOOOOOM!


lmao, I remember a burger idk what y'all talking about.


My memory has cleared. I know why we think there's a Cornucopia.

It's because we mistook the thanksgiving color pages from first grade for the logo!


11:21 Ha hah, in my case you're wrong, for multiple reasons. I win.

What a dumb thing to say


My old ass froot of the loom underwear doesn't have a cornucopia


Yeah ok. Next your gonna tell me there is no Indian on the butter


And then ur friends are all like "no dUmBasS oFc iT doEsNt haVe a CoRnuCopiA"


Whatever the source of this curio, its good for business. So plenty of reason for subversive advertisemeng


But the end of pikachu's tail was black? It is kit-kat?


I was just thinking: CD, CD, CD, CD, CD.


Yeah man no one believes me when i say thay america used to be a big apple tree. Apple truthers will reveal the truth 😡


Lol they just changed it in the early 2000s


It was never there and the Mandela effect is not even real.


People really be out here so self assured that they'd rather think the entire universe changed than admit they're wrong


There is many band tshirt got fruit of the looms tag.


I think I'm being gaslit by a youtuber over underwear.


Not the video that I needed to find at 2:22am


Never saw a cornucopia but they make good underwear


Who’s here after the urinating tree vid?


Bruh did you change the thumbnail to have the cornucopia in the background is was that just me


Bro captain disillusion did a video about this. Go watch it


I know the old band tee I'm wearing rn doesn't show any cornucopia

What's that word count website? I just wanna see what the last word is.


Lol the lyrics on Spotify say "in A Barbie world" but it does seem to be wrong? Idk


What's the video at 10:45??? I remember it from the somewhat early days of the internet


I don't even recognise the brand name but I recognised the logo when the thing was added what do you meeeann


We should probably stop prying, there definitely a bigger meaning to this cornucopia, there is something bigger at play this is not coincidence with mass growth progression of the human race in technology


Seeing emp with colored skin disgust me.


And theres jiffy cornbread mix or something


Honestly, the sinbad thing seems just about as strange as the fruit of the loom discrepancy does.


Hi Emp, I basically never ever comment on YouTube videos but I just realized you're my favorite content creator on this platform. Each video gives me new outlooks on subjects I most of the time never really thaught about, you are really broadening my worldview with each video and I want to thank you for that. I feel like you're one of the few on this site who only talks about what they truely care about, this is motivating me to keep going forward in life and I hope you'll do the same. In short, keep it up man, fantastic content !


I think it could be just that when introduced to the idea of there being a cornucopia, we find it so easily plausible that we think "yeah I remember that" and can so easily imagine such a detail in where ever we imagine it from then on. Kind of like deja vu.


Oddly enough, I remember fruit going in the cornucopia because it was a mural outside of a local publix. So I just assumed fruit goes in cornucopias.


When Vinesauce showed the discrepancy picture (during "Slasher's Keep #2" @ 55:08 for anyone wondering), it took me a minute to determine which is was.  It's been a while since I've so much as looked at the logo, but they both almost looked correct, if that makes sense.
  The cornucopia, I thought, made sense from a composition standpoint, at least to a point.  It made sense to me, because of the abundance of fruit centered together.  A cornucopia would fit perfectly right behind them.  However, the reason why I didn't think that it made sense, is mostly because it would make the logo too complex.
  I only really remembered it being a relatively small logo that involved fruits (an apple, and some grapes minimum) along with a leaf or two on either sides, so there wasn't much to go off of memory wise.  The cornucopia just looked out of place, not necessarily because of the color dispute, but more in terms of size.
  I had chosen the picture without the cornucopia, which turned out to be correct.  Because looking closely at it, I figured that it really just looked weirder with it.  But I understand why someone would think it's there, because the composition (aside from color) makes it really easy to see it existing there.
  I just think that the mandala effect is just something people reference when they don't want to admit that they got something wrong.  There could be more to it than just misremembering it; maybe someone photo-shopped an image or they saw a knock-off or something.  It's mostly just a couple of really, really noise people who don't want to admit that they're wrong, followed by not as noisy people that see the post and go, "hey, they're right, I don't remember it being like this", which makes it spread way more than it should.

I could've sworn it's ALWAYS had a cornucopia on it! That's how I remember it! It to me looks so wrong without it.


I once tried to sing a song for someone but couldn't remember the name, and when I got to the chorus the person was really shocked. Turns out I had subconsciously mixed the first verse of Smells like teen Spirit with the chorus of Come as you are. It didnt even occur to me that they were different songs, because I had just pitch shifted them together and the results were... interesting to say the least.

@Roosevelt Brentwood Come as you [REDACTED]

list of thing Dr. Bright is not allowed to do: Sing Nirvana songs,..........


I remember not only the cornucopia, but also looking at the regular fruit label and having a feeling it didn't look right, and that was many years ago


I’m an insanely visual person, always have been. My ability to recall visual details even from my childhood is on the spectrum. The cornucopia did exist. Like others I learned what it was from the logo because that’s the brand of underwear my mom bought me.


I think someone could insert the cornucopia pretty easily. Firstly, it's fruit. Secondly, the term cornucopia is considered kind of an old-timey term, and so is the fruit of the loom logo. A capri sun clearly has a pretty modern style, so people don't insert it in there.


I too learned of the term cornucopia from the logo. The year was 1987, I was in my mother's art room, the floor was darkly stained hardwood and the walls were horsehair plaster.


I actually remembered it with the cornucopia. it just looks more familiar to me vs just the fruit. Which i thought was a updated version. But who knows


I usually think most of the Mandella effect is dumb, but the fruit of the loom one is probably the one that actually confuses me


<b>This is really no different than the Monopoly monocle,</b> groups of fruit and vegetables laid out in that fashion are often in front of a cornucopia. It's not that complicated haha.

*This is really no different than the Monopoly monocle,* groups of fruit and vegetables laid out in that fashion are often in front of a cornucopia. It's not that complicated haha.


Ive NEVER seen the cornucopia. I remember the logo vividly. I always loved the fruits


It's pretty obvious given the abundance of similar imagery involving a cornucopia that it mixes memories so you naturally associate that sort of bundle of fruit with a imagery of harvest cornucopias.
The brain does that kind of "fill in the blank" all the time and it's not unreasonable to suggest that thousands of people have a similar level of image association.

Also imagine coming from a parallel universe and the only difference was that a corporate logo was slightly different lol. I'd be pissed.


I distinctly remember the cornucopia but only on these old ass sweaters my grandma kept at the hunting shack. Were they knock offs? chances are yes. My family is cheap enough to consider fruit of the loom to be a name brand.


The only supposed Mandela effect example I personally experienced was the namesake for it. Before the Mandela effect was a thing I had an experience where I was talking to a couple coworkers and one of them mentioned something about what Nelson Mandela had recently done and I was confused by it and told them I distinctly remembered watching news stories about Nelson Mandela’s death and video clips of his funeral. Other than that original “Mandela Effect” I have no other experiences.


I actually just a couple days ago had a wild example of the fallibility of perception and memory. I work retail, I was on the register with customer, and I see a dude run out the store and the little, shitty security tag detector that goes of at every other thing, legitimate or not, went off as a man ran out the doors. Didn't look like he had anything obvious to me, and I half-thought he might've just been leaving in a hurry and the shitty detector went off as a fluke, but I figured it was more likely he stole something.
I let my manager know, she checks the cameras to spot the guy, and you can see, clearly, in the camera, that he was holding a big like, I think cat litter container, and a small trash bin full of other stuff. None of that registered at the time it happened; if this was serious enough to get the police involved, I woulda swore up and down I didn't see a thing in his hands. I was utterly baffled that I could be so blatantly wrong about something that *just happened*.

When emp started bopping his head, that was one if the most wholesome things I've seen


Maybe it wasn't an ad for another product, but an in store ad/banner for an in store deal/sale, maybe even for fruit of the loom, maybe a fall sale, and maybe the store added the horn of plenty? And that's something we may never find after it's done. Probably just thrown out and never thought of again.

And the thing about the kid thinking the horn was "the loom", I totally remember thinking that too. But now I'm questioning my entire memory lol. Which really we probably should do more often, because it's not very accurate at all.


the type and order of the fruit and leaves seems to <b>suggest</b> a cornucopia to me at least, but I never remembered it having one.

the type and order of the fruit and leaves seems to *suggest* a cornucopia to me at least, but I never remembered it having one.


the premise of your video is based on the assumption that that pile of fruit wouldn't naturally be associated with a cornucopia, but that's an entirely subjective call. to me the pile of fruit seems very evocative of a cornucopia, and it only takes a small percentage of a population to have a similar association for the effect to occur. remember the typical mind fallacy, you have very little frame of reference for whether your mind works anything like that of others!


I’ve never heard of Fruit of the Loom but thought the cornucopia was natural.


Eh, I can easily imagine people just adding the cornucopia. Cornucopias, while rare and specific, are fairly simple shapes especially in the mind's eye.

Do I remember the cornucopia? I don't know. If you told me it had one, I'd believe you. If you told me it didn't, I'd believe that as well. The logo is basically a smudge of colors in my head, it's in a superposition. Same with Looney Tunes or Barenstain bears, Who even thinks about the spelling? Who has such a clear image of brand logos in their head? Who gets that invested in something they barely payed attention too?


I distinctly remember Berenstein Bears, I believe it's the Mandela effect.
Let me explain, me and my sister grew up with the TV show and the books especially, we learned to read with them!!!!
Another reason I remember it as Stein is because of my mini-stein/ mini-mug growing up.
My grandparents are European immigrants.
 So when they shared a beer in the evening watching Jeopardy, me and my sister would also have our shotglass sized steins.
When I learned what a stein cup is and that's what I had, I switched to mini-stein, I felt so sophisticated lol
But if your thinking I was just a drunk kid,
well we only got one shot.
It was about 2010 when this really started.
Me and my sister both noticed the name change, and we thought it was just that.
But the change spawned a joke between us where my sister would make fun of the "new name" by exaggerating it, Quote: BaRenSTAAAIIIIIN Bears.
Really emphasizing the "stain" as in staining your clothes, which she was infamous for.
We both remember it not being "stain" until it became a meme between us.
(Edit, all we knew of the internet was Webkinz)
(Edit 2.5: my mom even remembers the change and discrepancy, idk how to put her words here but quote (I don't know,but that's not what I remember)
And she remembers EVERYTHING.


Could it not just be an example of negative space? Like people saw a logo of fruits spilled out in such a way that they thought it belonged in a Cornucopia? Thanksgiving, Disney’s Hercules, Greek mythology, decorations - there are ample opportunities to see a “complete” cornucopia over time, whole or separated into pieces.


A lot of people associate piles of vegetables/fruits with cornacopias. As you explained at the start of the video, it's not actually that strange.


The Mandela effect comes down to people mixing up stuff in their mind over time.
My favorite example for this is the alleged Genie movie that features Sindbad.
I think, besides the facts regarding the topic shown in this video (a commercial with Sindbad dressed up as a Genie, Shaqs Genie movie, etc.), that most people, when they “remember” this, have the movie “Bernard and the Genie” in mind.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101435/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
This is a British Christmas-movie from 1991, that includes, like the title might already suggest, a Genie. It isn´t really a that well known movie, but since it was regularly on tv in the holiday-season here in Germany, I happened to see it quiet a few times when I was younger. According to the IMDB rating, as you can see, it isn´t even a bad movie, sitting solid at 7,5 out of 10.
Not only is the Genie in this a black guy, played by British actor/comedian Lenny Henry, he´s also a cool funny dude, who genuinely cares about the guy who freed him and is willing to use his powers to help him. He is somewhere between a god, rigging reality with his superpowers and a little child, constantly amazed by the technological advancements of the 20th century that are present in everyday live.
Also since it came out in 1991 and thus being way older than the 1996 movie Kazaam, it´s actually also older than the animated Disney movie Aladdin, that came out in 1992 and prominently features a comedic relief Genie. Therefore “Bernard and the Genie” is the first movie that showed the Genie as a nice, genuinely helpful spirit, in the form of a black man.
Even though that Lenny Henry looks nothing like Sindbad at all, it was around this time, in the early 90s, that Sindbad was on the peak of his game. So, at least at that time, mixing them up would have made sense, to some extent.
To close the circle, also look up Sindbad on Google. The first thing that you will find is the original Sindbad the sailor, that since he is a Mid-easterner, that lived in the middle ages, is usually shown in old mid-eastern clothing, kinda like Genies are depicted in pop-culture nowadays, since Genies have their origins in pre-islamic Arabian mythology. In conclusion or
TLDR:
People mix up Sindbad the actor with Sindbad the sailor, who was from the mid-east, the place Genies originate from as well. Because of that Sindbad the sailor and Genies in pop-culture have a similar style of clothing. The idea for a movie centered around a cool blackbro Genie was originally first done in “Bernard and the Genie”, a 1991 British Christmas-movie.


I don’t really agree with what you were saying about the cornucopia being so out of place in terms of color and shape that people couldn’t insert it into their memory. At least for me, when I thought cornucopia I didn’t think of any fruit or colors in particular. The fact that looking up cornucopia brings up specific fruits and colors is very interesting, but to say we associate a cornucopia with said foods and colors is to say that the exact type of food and color is the “important” detail that we remember when we think of a cornucopia. Personally, I just imagine it filled with food haphazardly spilling out, and I don’t care what type of food. When I see food piled up, I can very easily place a cornucopia behind it and imagine it as natural.


you should've gotten lastpas to sponsor this video, i can just imagine the transition from "confront the idea that our memory is fallible" to "that's why you need a password manager like lastpas"
