Fruit of the Loom


As I noticed my underwear one day, I was thinking “What does the name Fruit of the Loom actually mean?”

So I went to Wikipedia and found this bit of trivia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit_of_the_loom

The name “Fruit of the Loom” is interpreted by many as a play on words with respect to a part of the Hail Mary prayer: “…blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.” (cf. Gospel of Luke 1:42) The two phrases are unrelated: it is merely a coincidence that “womb” rhymes with “loom”.
