 LexNotes - Hormel Foods Corporation v. Jim Henson Productions, Inc.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Hormel Foods Corporation appeals from a judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Wood, J.) denying Hormel's request for a permanent injunction against Jim Henson Productions, Inc. after a full bench trial on the merits.
Hormel has shown no intention of entering the field of puppet entertainment with its attendant merchandising, see McGregor-Doniger, supra, 599 F.2d at 1135, and there is no evidence that consumers would relate Hormel to such an enterprise.
However, Hormel overlooks the district court's findings that Spa'am is a positive character, that he is not unhygienic, and that a simple comic reference to the fact that SPAM is made from pork will not damage its image, especially in view of the lack of adverse effect from the numerous other humorous references to SPAM.

 Henson vs. Hormel Legal Opinion
Hormel argues that it is clear that Henson intended to capitalize on the goodwill and reputation of its trademark and that this implies bad faith.
Hormel argues, in fact, that Henson's use of Spa'am is not a parody at all because Henson has not made clear that the Spa'am character is not affiliated with or approved by Hormel.
Hormel is unlikely to suffer weakening of its mark, because, as Hormel acknowledges, the joke relies on (and thus reinforces) the distinctiveness of the SPAM mark.

 The SPAM Story   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Hormel developed America's first canned ham (''Hormel Flavor-Sealed Ham'') in 1926, and eleven years later developed the first canned meat product that did not require refrigeration.
It was a ''distinctive chopped pork shoulder and ham mixture'' developed by Jay C. Hormel, son of Hormel founder George A. Hormel, and marketed as ''Hormel Spiced Ham'' - not a terribly inspiring name for an innovative product fated to save lives, win wars, and balance diets of people world wide.
During the late 1940s and early 1950s, the Hormel Girls performing troupe advertised SPAM as they performed throughout the country, distributed SPAM door-to-door, and even had a national weekly radio show.
