Sunshine Who?

As it turns out, the sunshine burger/patty is quite a name.  This acquaintance of mine once asked me if I were going to run into any problem with the sunshine burger WholeFoods sell, and I didn't take it so seriously; and now here comes my lesson. 

In the Q&A on mentoring, I answered his question of how to choose a company name by searching the USPTO database, but did I not do it for my product name?  

How silly was I that we even have the Sunshine Burger's packaging and looking at it for a good period of time but not noticing it is actually a company but not just a product!!  

So lesson of the day: always check USPTO before you name your company, product, or anything that you are going to sell otherwise you could run into infringement of someone else's trademark!  Good luck!



We will now take actions to this!
