LOVE OF FOOD
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that “LOVE OF FOOD” is a cancelled Principal Register service mark owned by Sodexo Operations, LLC; its registration was cancelled on Dec 19 2025 because the owner did not file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, and the mark is now dead. The registration covered only “Contract food services” in International Class 043, which means the most direct concern would be a similar name used for restaurant, hotel or other food‑service contracts. The record does not give Sodexo control over every use of the words “love of food” in unrelated industries or contexts. There is no Supplemental Register filing or descriptiveness refusal shown in the prosecution history, just the normal examination steps leading to registration in 2019 and the later cancellation. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation notice on Dec 19 2025, and the supplied history contains no opposition, cancellation proceeding or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a similar name in the same food‑service space, but the risk is far lower for unrelated goods or services.
