really? ever?

only a slice on other people’s birthdays as far as I can recall anyway

I reckon they mean like 47 people operating the production line that pumps out thousands of the things every week. But 44 people probably have argued about the font

Aha! Maybe a test case, before they take on the Cecils and Wiggles of this world.

the thing in that that argues that folk are getting duped by Aldi stuff… i mean that’s just bullshit. i go to aldi and i see something on the shelf im surprised when it is the branded stuff not the aldi stuff. it’s not like i’m getting duped - i know what aldi is there to do, and find it excellent that there’s stuff that is very good at mimicking.

i mean i’d be pissed off if they were routinely selling the aldi brand versus the non aldi stuff in the other markets… but that’s not happening.,

The courts take into account what the “average consumer” would think, and this is intended as a standard that gets updated as consumer awareness shifts, rather than some fixed set of rules.

Aldi definitely used to present themselves as being a cheap alternative, but nowadays I feel like their advertising has shifted towards a tone of “we’re just as good as the other supermarkets, and we’re also cheaper”, which in this case might actually hurt their defence.

Aldi has loads of knock offs, wonder if anyone else will follow (law)suit

Might make a Colin the Caterpillar cake one day.

A friend has started using “Colin” as effectively the male equivalent of “Karen.” Hmmm not sure about that mate.

I wanted to do this too but then I remembered I don’t have 43 friends
