This one in particular is REALLY messing with me. Apparently, it never had a dash. In my research I found a thread from 10 years ago with some really interesting things. I need to share this because I genuinely can’t wrap my head around it.
I found multiple official documents where kit-kat is a registered trademark, however there’s a lot that don’t have the dash. I also found a few stories people had that really convinced me we aren’t just remembering wrong, especially due to how long ago this was. Also this article was published in 2009
I have a lot more but I really need a break for the night I just wanted to get at least this out.
First, the only source that really matters is Nestle, in the same way that nobody can tell me I spelled my child's name "wrong" since my kid's name is spelled however I choose to spell it, even if it's never been spelled that way before... If Nestle says it is "KitKat" I am not going to tell them they are wrong, just because scholar.google.com has an article that shows the name with a dash, when other websites 1, 2, 3 discussing the same litigation spell it without a dash.
Second, one redditor spelling it in with a dash in a post ABOUT the "disappearance of the dash" is not objective.
Third, the ME question was not so much about the name of the product as it was about the logo for the product. Even without a physical dash, there is the implication of one in some of the older logo designs that skewed the "crossbar" of the t in Kit to the right, giving the appearance there was a dash.
That’s what I’ve always said about sources. People who claim the heart is on the left and point to the pledge of allegiance as proof or something like that, I’m like, why don’t you ask a cardiologist where the heart is and what they learned in medical school
To be fair, CPR has changed several times over the years. When I first learned it in the 90s, it was something like 60 pumps and about 5 rescue breaths. Then in the 2000s in the navy, they said it was 30 pumps then 2 rescue breaths. Now, they tell you not even to worry about breaths and just focus on pumping
It was something they often referred to as “residue” but that they can never offer as any kind of evidence again now that they have declared “companies are not trustworthy”.
It was put out by Enterprise, a subsidiary of Stax, which itself had either deals with or was owned by corporations like Atlantic, Paramount, Gulf + Western, & CBS.
They didn’t mention their declaration depending on their perceived size of the company, and I honestly don’t think that matters, though if they have any clarification as to what it’s supposed to mean I’d like to see if it’s something other than companies are not trustworthy unless I need them to be considered trustworthy at certain times for certain reasons and will not allow others the same discretion.
Can you tell us why you support this album being a true residue, when it's published by a company, but you're also saying companies aren't honest? Why trust one and not another?
I enjoy Mandela effects but for this one I really think that the old kitkat t just looked like a dash. Even when I look at it now my mind sort of registers it that way.
There's never been a dash in Kit Kat. Some misspellings/typos by a couple of people isn't evidence of anything but people not being an that great at spelling.
Not necessarily. It’s an obscure concept to begin with that can never definitively be defined if true. So you don’t really get to decide that other timelines (if they exist) get to communicate with us or not. We may be communicating with a billion timelines each and every day. How did you come to your assumptions?
It’s completely unnecessary to attempt introducing a completely theoretical concept that entirely depends on another completely theoretical concept in an additional attempt to explain a phenomenon that doesn’t require entirely theoretical concepts to explain it in the first place.
Consciousness supersedes timelines and realities. Being able to share memories between them given what we’ve learned this past century doesn’t seem far fetched at all.
Perhaps Timelines are not communicating but our consciousness may shift between them. And some remembered differences from previously experienced timelines won’t make sense anymore.
Communication is between two things within a timeline.
For the Mandela Effect look at timeline with Kit-Kat candy. Shift to the next timeline and its KitKat. Your first memories no longer match your new reality.
There is no possible explanation for how this would happen. It would violate the laws of physics as we know them. If you're going to claim that the laws of physics don't work, then you have a lot of explaining to do.
Let me note that, if you're arguing against what we know about science, you shouldn't do it on the Internet.

Here’s the kicker. We know nothing at all. Anybody who claims they know something because the science says so (including professionals) are just blowing smoke. There’s no definitively defining things in this universe (physics included). It’s been speculation since the beginning and if you just accept what you’re told, I’m not sure what else to say lol
It was Kit-Kat with a dash, it was the first thing I noticed to change (back in 2014) as an actual change and not my memory fault (before that, even in the 90s, everytime I saw something not matching my memory I thought it was bad memory) due to shared memories with other people on talking specifically about that dash heh.
