what the hell is that "fruit" on the right? the garnish of the loom?

Clayton,
It is our leaf character.
Thank you for writing.

Now I know a leaf ain't typically considered a fruit, but I guess that's if you go all literal on their asses. I guess the word "fruit" can also refer to yield, like in their name - Fruit of the Loom. If you look at their logo, I guess they had to choose between the leaf things or have a third grape-ish looking character - those gooseberries/currants. Legend has it that the leaves are actually fig leaves, which back in Adam'n'Eve-type times covered the same parts of the body that their underwear does today - but FOTL will only call them "leaves" whenever people inquire about it. (Some have also speculated that they were tobacco leaves.) I think they like to leave things a bit mysterious to keep folks like you and me thinking about their brand. Guess it's working!

Ok, the leaf guy used to actually be a cluster of Boysenberries.
Then FOTL decided maybe it was a little too similar to the grape
cluster so they made him a yellow leafy "garnish".
But then kids thought he looked like lasagna, so now he's green leaves.

PermalinkYESS!!!
Thank you so much. I've been going mental thinking that I did indeed see boysenberries in the FOTL back in the early eighties, and now there's this leafy thing going on. Yeay!
