TikTok is not the source. TikTok is just a platform. The source is a woman who took a picture as a proof.

we went from “don’t trust everything you read on the internet” to “see a random person posted this so it must be true”

Do you need someone with a PhD in a peer reviewed journal for a company logo from the 90s?

Well, it's Fruit of the Loom, so it might need to be a pear reviewed journal.

I'm not using tiktok as a source of truth. It's for entertainment purposes. However, the woman whose account I tagged has posted multiple videos regarding the subject that this post and the comment which I replied to is referencing.

Okay, Professor. We're not writing an essay here, I'm literally just providing a reference to the comment I replied to.

Also, those of us that are old enough have seen the cornucopia logo and even owned clothing with it, just like the t-shirt shown in the video I linked.
