DAN-DEE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “DAN‑DEE” is no longer live; it was a Principal Register registration that expired because it was not renewed. The owner listed is DAN DEE PRETZEL AND POTATO CHIP COMPANY, a corporation organized in Ohio. The registration covered the class 030 goods of “POP CORN FLAVORED WITH CHEESE,” with first use in August 1927. A similar name used for popcorn or related snack foods would raise the closest concern because the goods match the registered scope. The record does not give the mark control over every use of the wording, only over the specific product listed. The prosecution history shows the mark was registered in 1952, renewed once in 1972, and finally expired in 1993. No opposition, cancellation, or enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. For someone thinking of a similar name, the expired status means there is no active registration to enforce, but the historical claim over flavored popcorn remains a potential point of caution.
