Henry VIII of England holding a turkey leg no longer exists - Mandela Effect
For those who don't know, the mandela effect here is that many people remember King Henry VIII posing with a turkey leg in a portrait and also remember seeing parodies of him toting the infamous prop as a symbol of his gluttony and excessiveness.

The thing is - it never happened and such references do not exist. Who remembers the painting?

It was a large fowl of some sort. And yah this was one of my first. Still a little unnerving.

For those of us that are religious or spiritual... ie. God or Buddha or Jesus, etc. Doesn’t it make you scratch your noodle? Why these moments? Patterns?

Re: Henry VIII of England holding a turkey leg no longer exists - Mandela Effect
But think for a moment:

Why would they do an official royal portrait of a king holding a piece of meat??

It doesn't make sense.

I'm sure there was some parody somewhere, since Henry VIII was so fat, but in what reality would they have painted an official portrait of a king holding a drumstick? Serious question.

It is the inspiration for the turkey legs everyone buys to eat at Refest.

It was never an official portrait. Lots of images may exist but aren't from his lifetime. I don't know where it came from or remember how it was used. I think it was a parody or promotion for something else like an article or a book.

stupid follows stupid. Anyone over 40 is aware of the portrait in question. Holding a huge turkey leg, looking like a glutton.
