Pork Lobby Sends Cease & Desist Over Unicorn Meat
The National Pork Board sent a cease & desist order today, claiming infringement on the phrase "the other white meat," by nerd store ThinkGeek, which uses the trademarked tagline to describe sparkle-spam gag gift "Unicorn Meat."
Unicorn meat isn't white so much as rainbow-swirl sparkle-poo hued, anyway. Via ThinkGeek's blog, here's the pork lobby's letter:
ThinkGeek offered a humble apology—and a sale price on Unicorn Meat and other goods if you use the coupon code PORKBOARD. Well played, geeks. [ThinkGeek]
