SAME. I know without a doubt the brown cornucopia was part of the fruit logo.

There is zero doubt in my mind. It's literally how I learned what a cornucopia is.
I was in 6th grade and our school was going to have a Christmas play, which involved some kids dressing as reindeer. The teacher showed us an example of the kind of sweatpants we'd need to wear, and they were Fruit of the Loom, still in the package. I asked the teacher what the brown fruit was, and she told me to look it up and that it was a cornucopia, except she said it like "Cornycopia," which I couldn't find in the dictionary until she told me it was spelled with a 'u' and not a 'y'.
I didn't misremember that, I didn't confuse it with Thanksgiving, etc. The only reason I know what a cornucopia is is because of that and how she mispronounced it.
YUP. You stand firm by that and I stand by you. We know what we saw!
I had a powerful memory as a child too and I'll never forget it was 1979/1980 I closely studied that logo on our clothing tags for some reason, because that's what little bright intelligent children do, we soak up the world around us like an information-hungry sponge. It's a powerful memory burned into my head.
