Not according to the Judgment. On 11 April 2017, Supermac filed an application for revocation with EUIPO in respect of the EU trade mark in respect of the word sign BIG MAC.

The Judgment is in fact limited, the challenge was all encompassing, but McDonald’s still retains certain Big Mac Trademark rights. From the Judgment: >106 In view of all the foregoing, the contested decision must be annulled as regar

For clarity McDonald’s still has the trademark protection for “meat sandwiches.” This part of the trademark was also challenged along with the other goods/services, but McDonald's provided satisfactory evidence of use of the mark.

When people wrongly claim keto is a new “fad diet” you don’t know why people would point out that it’s been around for over 100 years highlighting there are ample subjects that had adhered to it their entire lives from childhood? Are there

Discovering health tends to do that to people. It doesn’t matter if it’s discovering keto, carnivore, vegetarian, vegan, or exercise. When people commit to improving their health, and begin to experience improvements, for better or worse

You asked yourself questions and answered your own questions wrong, it’s not a big deal. Read the the HN guidelines and as they say try to be more curious, there’s really no need to walk through life so angry and bitter when you are wrong.

You should reread your comment I was replying to where you asked and (incorrectly) answered multiple rhetorical questions and reflect on the HN policy you cited. Allow me to help you correct your answers: >Is it illegal to hire a voice

Illegal? It probably isn’t criminal, which is what you seem to be asking, although it very well might be depending on the facts. More importantly, under the available facts JA likely has a claim for civil damages under one of more causes of

Yogurt has been around for thousands of years, pasteurized milk for less than 200. And yes the pasteurization of milk is to make it safe and it’s required by law in the US (if the milk/yogurt crosses state lines, interstate commerce).

That’s the point, the yogurt purchased in stores is processed to the point it loses the very benefits that make yogurt “healthy.” To answer your specific question, farmers that have dairy cows. It’s not so common these days, but neither i
