Sausage Companies Settle Sausage Fight Over Sausage Marketing
LatestTwo sausage companies have come to an agreement in their fight over who’s entitled to dub their bratwurst the “backyard brat.”
That’s according to Fox 11 News (h/t AP). You see, Klement Sausage trademarked the term “backyard brat” in 2009. So when Johnsonville Sausage started braying about their “backyard grilled brat,” well, that just wouldn’t do at all. Klement sued, and now the two companies have settled, and Johnsonville is henceforth verboten from getting anywhere near the phrase.
