2002may11. King VelVeeda is being sued by Kraft because “VelVeeda” is close to “Velveeta.”Because if they don’t protect the valuable “Velveeta” name, there will be thousands of other corporations more than happy to capitalize on their laziness and we will soon be seeing “Velscreeta” disgustingly bright fake factory cheese and “Velvooter” disgustingly bright fake factory cheese and “Velverta” disgustingly bright fake factory cheese. Or, perhaps people will want to know more about Velveeta cheese and just naturally assume that they should go to www.cheesygraphics.com and then when they see the nakeds ladies on the site will suddenly assume that this international food conglomerate is now porn-oriented and there will be boycotts and product burnings and chaos.
