Last year in my area, a food truck decided to call itself Leggo My Egg Roll, and obvious play on Eggo waffles tagline.

Kellogg sent them a cease and desist, they decided to ignore it. Kellogg then offered to pay them to rebrand, they still wouldn’t.

They then sued for $15 million.

Ah yes, the $15M in lost business Kellogg's suffers from people mistaking toaster waffles for a Chinese food truck business.

Fucking lawyer scum.
