What this record means
The record shows that the mark “MY” is dead on the Principal Register, having been abandoned by MyForest Foods Co. after the owner failed to file a Statement of Use or Extension Request following the Notice of Allowance on December 13, 2022. The mark covered the specific goods of mycelium‑based jerky substitutes in class 029. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same class, where the mark’s scope is limited to that particular type of processed food. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “MY.” The prosecution history shows the mark was approved for publication and granted a Notice of Allowance, but no further examination or Supplemental Register action occurred. The latest event is the abandonment notice on July 15, 2024, with no enforcement actions recorded. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the specific class remains a potential point of concern.
