What changed

The TTAB issued a final decision sustaining Link Snacks' opposition to BigFoot Brand's trademark application for 'THE BIG FOOT BRAND EAT LIKE A BIGFOOT' in International Class 30 (food products). The Board's ruling prevents the applicant from obtaining federal trademark registration for the contested mark.

The primary parties directly affected are Link Snacks, Inc. (prevailing plaintiff) and BigFoot Brand LLC (unsuccessful applicant). Trademark applicants and food industry companies involved in brand development should review this decision for likelihood-of-confusion analysis implications, as the TTAB's sustained opposition may signal increased scrutiny for marks containing 'Big Foot' or similar bigfoot-style branding in food categories.
