MASTERCHEFSerial 86245985 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: PIETRO CORICELLI S.P.A.
Class 029 - Meats & Processed Foods
Class 030 - Staple Foods
Filed Apr 08, 2014
The record shows that the mark “MASTERCHEF” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Pietro Coricelli S.P.A., a corporation organized in Italy, and the mark was filed on April 8, 2014 under an intent‑to‑use basis. The goods listed in classes 029 and 030 cover a wide range of edible fats, oils, preserved fruits and vegetables, sauces, condiments, pasta, pizza, baked goods, and confectionery. A similar name used for products or services within those food categories would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the mark control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods listed. No enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the abandonment notice on February 19, 2015. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the specific food goods listed still represent a potential concern if the new use is in those areas.

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.
