I do find that part pretty funny. People are willing to blatantly lie to claim they own a real piece of clothing with the cornucopia on it but they never put in the effort to actually create a new fake.
Snopes doesn't say that knockoff products using the fake logos don't exist. In fact, it says that it's irrelevant. However, I'm surprised to see that no one has any evidence from before the known fake logos were made. The likelihood of absolutely every article of cheap, low-quality clothing of a knockoff line being destroyed within 30 years isn't very high. You'd think there would be at least 1 surviving example, unless the knockoff were inconsistent and the clothes tags used no cornucopia but some of the packaging did…
You’d also think some portion of it would accidentally get sold on eBay or poshmark or whatever with the real stuff since no one is reinforcing that kind of thing and a lot of that is still in the packaging. So even if it was just packaging and no tags it would be around. But it’s not.
That’s from 2024, a factory in Colombia according to the poster. And once again using the same known fake logo from 2017. It’s not where people’s false memories come from.
It's possible that you misremember but my family was poor for a while and we shopped at discount stores, outlet stores, and outdoor markets. I'm certain that I have worn knockoff clothing but I'm unsure exactly what. To be honest, I learned about cornucopias from handmade family heirloom decorations my grandma displayed every November. So, I don't have any strong memories about the logo.

The lack of cornucopia proves its authenticity. Only knockoffs used the cornucopia.
