MASTER CHEFSerial 76340759 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: CFS Holdings, Inc.
Class 030 - Staple Foods
Filed Nov 21, 2001
The record shows that the mark “MASTER CHEF” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, CFS Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, never filed a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after receiving a Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 030, covering gravy mixes. Because the mark was abandoned, it no longer provides enforceable rights, but the history still indicates that the owner once claimed protection over that specific food product. A similar name used for gravy mixes or related staple foods would raise the closest record‑based concern, while use in unrelated categories would be farther from the scope shown. The supplied history contains no opposition, cancellation, or court action, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For anyone thinking of using a similar name for gravy mixes, this record suggests a meaningful risk of encountering prior claims in that narrow food category.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
