Interesting. There were four such descriptions of different incidents, and yes I first read them in what I considered a reasonable source, and like many good stories do continue to be passed along. The Gerber one was one of them. Of the two cases that are true, one can be seen to this day, that Exxon spent a huge amount of money researching a name that would not be some embarrassing reference in some odd language and the day it was launched comedians were calling it the sign of the doublecross, a thought that had apparently not occurred while looking up obscure references
And NBC was looking to revamp its logo and paid a large sum for a very minimalist design that was so simple a PBS Station had already come up with one extremely similar and they had to bring back the Peacock to make it different.
Snopes and baby food labels.

nope, nothing
mirrors don’t freak it out, fwiw
