Somewhat... I recall a case (here in AU) a few years back a local
chocolate company embattled in a long running lawsuit against Cadbury
over the colour purple. The little guy won in that case.
A little show of homage wouldn't have hurt in this case, but
considering the name, I'm surprised this hasn't happened multiple
times already.
