ARGUMENT(S) |
In response to the Examiner?s objections to the Class 30 goods, Applicant believes that its bars and snacks are more appropriately placed in Class
29, as its products are not cereal or grain based but instead are nut and fruit based. Therefore, Applicant requests its goods and services be amended as follows: Class 25: Clothing, namely, shirts,
pants, shorts, sweatshirts, sweaters, jerseys, and headwear; Class 29: Dried fruit and nut based energy bars; high protein nut based protein bars; high protein dried fruit and nut based protein bars;
energy snacks in the nature of products made of dried fruit and nuts, namely, organic fruit and nut based snack food, processed organic fruit- and nut-based food bars and organic fruit and nut-based
snack bars; and Class 35: Online retail store services for clothing, headwear, exercise and therapeutic equipment, printed publications, creams and lotions, energy snacks, dietary and nutritional
supplements and protein powders. If the Examining Attorney has any additional questions regarding the descriptions of its bars in Class 29, please feel free to contact the undersigned. |
