One, fruit of the loom bought that company after this event happened (were not owners during the event), they became liable by buying them. Two, that has nothing to do with a coronocupia being in the logo, there is no good evidence of a cornucopia ever being in the logo, that was just a tik toker driving up views by trying to link it to the more popular mandela effect thing. Removing a small section of a logo to cover up a chemical spill? That makes absolutely zero sense (not to mention it’s not exactly covered up, it’s on the epa website). But good on them for spreading awareness of chemical contamination by companies. Bad on them for doing it by making up nonsense about the logo to drum up views.

And yet, it’s an EPA superfund
TLDR: They bought seven contaminated properties. went bankrupt. $42 mill cleanup bill.
Yes that’s all true, I agree with you. And I hate how big companies pass on the cost of their waste to the public in this and so many other instances.
The linking it to a supposed coronocupia logo was the clickbait nonsense to drum up views though.
What environmental disaster did am underwear company create? Was it bleech and dye related?

Kek this false seeming conspiracy has spread far. TikTok is great for that
What’s the Mandela uhhh Effected thing here?
Cornucopia in the fruit of the loom logo
Is the effected part that the logo used to lack the cornucopia?
It lacks the cornucopia now, and from what I’ve gathered it is allegedly due to a sale and rebrand to distance the company from an ecological disaster.
It’s never had the cornucopia in the logo.

It’s pretty common for people’s brains to want one to be there for some reason though. My guess is because we’ve seen so many similar pictures of fruit or vegetables spilling out of a cornucopia that we misremember and merge similar pictures.
How much can you trust snopes tho? For all we know, they could be in on it. I’m not american, I have never heard of this brand before, but I think the pro-cornucopia people have a more solid point.
I had some fruit of the loom underwear growing up, and while I can’t remember if the logo had a cornucopia or not, I do remember the material sucked
When I searched duck duck go image search for Fruit of the Loom, the cached image for their official website includes the cornucopia. When you click into it though it’s not there. WHAT ARE THEY HIDING!
I guess they are hiding… a… cornucopia?
Rip Mandela
Man, one day I’m gonna build up the patience to memorize all of these and never buy their products again… not today tho.
Uh… Thank you?
