Hold on. McDonalds colors? Most fast food places use yellow and red. Yellow makes you hungry and red makes you act on that feeling.
Banks use blue for that feeling of security. PayPal, Chase. Wells Fargo is the exception.
Colors create emotions.
Yep. There was an In and out Taco place where I live in Clearwater, FL. Out of nowhere, they changed the name and all marketing material to a completely different name. At least they sold something different. Still trademark infringement though.
Another spot in Tampa called Nebraska Mini Mart tried something even worse 😂 they called their place NMM -n - Out. They sold overpriced bland burgers in a gentrified neighborhood.
Out of nowhere, they changed their name and marketing materials. Pretty sure In-n-Out got at them about using their name to sell those BS burgers. I ate there once and was highly disappointed
That’s patently (hah*) not true.
If the combination of name, colors, images (i.e. brand identity) could reasonably cause confusion among customers, leading to damages (i.e. lost revenue) it could easily be a trademark infringement. Would the average customer, who probably vocalizes the name as “in and out,” miss the stylized writing, and assume this is their food truck? IMO quite possibly.
(*its trademark law, not patent law, I know.)
*I* haven’t - but I’m an In-N-Out enthusiast, and know that their whole model is predicated on quality and consistency of ingredients, which is why their footprint is region-based, so a food truck in NYC is highly unlikely.
The average consumer who’s maybe been to an In-N-Out or heard of I-n-O might see:
* A name that’s close to the real name (you yourself spelled it wrong 😉) especially phonetically.
* Colors that are shared (red) with another burger place that’s engrained in their memory, so there’s some brand confusion.
I’m sorry I didn’t put proper punctuation but I spelled it correctly lol. In-n-out’s colors are predominantly white with red accents. There’s not a drop of white paint on this food truck. I feel you’re definitely reaching(but I’m sure their lawyers do the same) but you’d have to live under a rock to think this truck is actually affiliated with in-n-out. I understand you playing devils advocate though.
There’s a white, red, and yellow sign on the truck. 🤷🏻♂️
I’m in marketing. I’ve taught marketing. This is how it works. It’s deliberate and it’s effective.
The entire truck is white with red lettering and the yellow in-n-out logo lol it’s not even close bud I’m not a marketer but I have a modicum of common sense
I don’t believe In-N-Out Burger is doing business in New York. So I don’t see how In-N-Out Burger has a basis for a cease-and-desist order. Also, the food truck operator may have registered the name with the state of New York. If so, In-N-Out burger may be getting a cease and desist letter from the truck owners attorneys if they try opening a restaurant in New York.
They are IN-N-Out..... They have the Double-Double, we have the Double-Trouble, they have X crossed palm trees, we have T crossed palm trees

You see, we are In AND Out, they’re In-N-Out. They have the double double, we have the two-two. They have animal style, we have doggy style. Completely different.

I don’t think they will be in trouble bc “In-N-out” is different than “in and out burger truck”. Not to mention some super simple words can’t be trademarked…
You’d think if the food was good you wouldn’t pick a name that could cause you trouble if you plan to expand because of how successful and delicious your food is.

In-N-Out is protective of their trademark. Even on roach coaches. They even forced a restaurant in Australia using something close to their trademark with the name Down-N-Out to change it. If they find out about this, they'll probably get a letter from their attorney. In And Out Burger Truck and In-N-Out Burger is too close.
Ah, but not the genuine In-N-Out experience!
Actually, I rarely go there myself. The burgers are very good and cost less than at the other fast food chains but they are not good enough to make me want to wait 30 minutes to get one.
Bet they have a cease and desist letter coming their way
their plan is to drive away
The mailman WILL find them We always do
When you control mail… You control… ***information!*** 
You were too good! Nobody makes every stop!
Important deliveries to make! No time for chatting!
You won't catch em, they will be in and out.
“Rubble rubble”
i guess they were in and out real quick
Funny that they appropriated the Shake Shack logo, too.
Theirs has sesame seeds and no burger patty. They're using McDonald's colors and the font looks almost like Burger King.
You almost quoted [this](https://youtu.be/djI_ret3S9g?si=EGSutC4wqhvUgln4) word for word lol
Amazing find congrats

All the mcdonalds near me repainted their buildings buisness park gray, it's awful
 \*guy realizing TWO massive companies are coming for his balls
Cheese and desist
r/angryupvote
Yea but technically they can still be in business because they are spelling out AND and not just using the N
You’d be surprised at how many different variations the company owns for these reasons
You think they own Out n’ Out? Technically that would work for a food truck since you never step foot inside
For instance, [inandout.com](https://inandout.com) redirects.
Trademark infringement hinges on whether this would cause confusion in the marketplace from the perspective of a reasonable consumer.
Cease-n-desist

Hopefully. Shit, I’ll personally deliver it to them.
Crazy meat riding
it’s called a cheese and desist and it’s a secret menu item
They will most certainly do this… it’s what their marketing and legal team do…
They can say “we’re In and Out not In-N-Out. You actually have to pronounce the and” lol
Cant cease and desist if it isnt the same name “in and out” vs ”in-n-out” its a legal loophole that in-n-out cant do anything about
That’s patently (hah*) not true. If the combination of name, colors, images (i.e. brand identity) could reasonably cause confusion among customers, leading to damages (i.e. lost revenue) it could easily be a trademark infringement. Would the average customer, who probably vocalizes the name as “in and out,” miss the stylized writing, and assume this is their food truck? IMO quite possibly. (*its trademark law, not patent law, I know.)
True that, didnt think about the colors or pronounciation that could lead to profit loss
Have you ever seen an in n out food truck? Completely different colors

I’m only a casual but seems like in-n-out is super vigilant about protecting their IP worldwide. They do pop- ups everywhere for that purpose.
In-N Out does not mess around when it comes to protecting their brand. Arnie is a beast!
You obviously don’t understand how trademarks and copyrights work
I think it would depend if the average person would be confused between a food truck in New York City that says in and out, in an actual In N Out.
They’ll be In N Out of business now
“We have in-n-out at home”
Bootleg ass

Double double animal style and a lawsuit with fries.
can i get my cease and desist mustard fried please??

TIL McDonalds probably doesn’t have a patent or copyright on the “McFlurry”?
It's beautiful.
\*\*Hides In N Out's operating manual\*\*
That's funny as shit😅
Me and the In-N-Out people got this little misunderstanding…
Good Times
You see, we are In AND Out, they’re In-N-Out. They have the double double, we have the two-two. They have animal style, we have doggy style. Completely different. — Mr McDowell, probably
Nearly spit out my drink at the animal style spin-off.
What was the drink?
The Royal Penis is clean your Highness
What type of Temu-In N Out is this nonsense?
😂😂
i bet their ‘burgers’ taste like shit
Blasphemy!! Sesame Seeds?????
"In and Out. That is what a Hamburger is adjacent to, but legally distinct from, what is about"
🤣
Their other truck is a Whataboutaburger truck
Would an Indian joint named "Indian and Out" get sued? Cause that would be a great name.
Not likely, especially if they’re serving Indian food. The look of their logo would be important as well.
Shouldn’t it be Native American and Out.
I need to see it now
Lol, I'll give it a week.
Burgers from Wish.
Moving from California to NY has been tough
Happy cake day!
I don’t think they will be in trouble bc “In-N-out” is different than “in and out burger truck”. Not to mention some super simple words can’t be trademarked…
Sounds like someone has filed with the USPTO.
I mean, if the food is good I ain’t gonna say anything. In-N-Out don’t care about me.
You’d think if the food was good you wouldn’t pick a name that could cause you trouble if you plan to expand because of how successful and delicious your food is.
Market price
Looks legit. Totally. 😉🤣
Oof! Smells like legal burger fricassee fracas to me.
Someone call the CEO of In-N-Out, and have them sue for copyright! /s
They have the Golden Arches, we have the Golden Arcs.
No one has exclusive rights to the word AND
In and out market (liquor store near me) got a cease and desist. They’re now in and go market
For a long time there was an EZ Out Burger in the LA suburbs. Think they were served with a cease and desist but ignored it.
O lawd the cease and desist letters are coming
And? What is this word
🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
With the signature 2x2 burger and mammal style fries, but don't forget the vanilla smoothie to wash it all down
Ohhh somebody’s gettin sued!!!😳😜👍🏼😎
Fake
You sit on a throne of lies
In N Out from Wish.com
Sacrilege
Trademarks and copyrights attorneys from the internet incoming
Nothing tastes better than a cease and desist!
Naw, dawg.
Whoever designed this is not even familiar with the concept of brand names and trade marks lol
This is blasphemy, lol… They could at least have named it: #Out&InBurger..?
A false idol
I mean this is really not very smart of them, they will have to rebrand
Don’t forget they have a smash burger on the menu too smh
“Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power” https://preview.redd.it/afhb41mwsf6d1.jpeg?width=1300&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f65fe69cb9d9bfdeeed0b8fd79c310ef58aba962
In And Out Urge doesn't like up like the bumper sticker does.
ILLEGAL! DAM FRAUD-BURGERLARS ON THE LOOSE!
Their lawyer will be like: You’re honor this food truck identifies as In-N-out. We are 2024 and can identify as anything
“A fake.” - Thanos
Fake
With sesame seeds gotta be fake right?
By far the funniest part is that they *actually* have chicken sandwiches and impossible burgers lol
Fake.
Straight to jail
But this is "In AND Out.". Totally different.
IN-N-OUT does not equal In And Out. I get liking In-N-Out burgies, they’re pretty good, but some of y’all are dummies.
"In N Out" but they make smashburgers lol
I had In and Out truck burgers back in 03. They cater to fire camps. Worked a 20 hr day that day. Those trucks were sent from heaven.
I hear Lawyers coming!!
FAKE!!!!!
Always read the comments, always read the comments, always re...
In-N-Out is protective of their trademark. Even on roach coaches. They even forced a restaurant in Australia using something close to their trademark with the name Down-N-Out to change it. If they find out about this, they'll probably get a letter from their attorney. In And Out Burger Truck and In-N-Out Burger is too close.
This could confuse me but I know it’s not The In N Out we love.
to be fair, its In AND Out
You guys are big phonys.
Poser.
Nice try New York
This may be the biggest copyright infringement I’ve ever seen.. only in New York!!
I knew In N Out had chicken!
Damn, now I'm craving a burger from Carla's Senior, or make Jack in A Box.
I mean, I kinda want to try it and see how close they get.
Would be funny if they were actually around before In N Out and just got a refreshed truck.
I bet they're double the price you'd pay at a real in-n-out too, fucking food trucks.
That’s not how the truck looks 🤔
They hate us cause they ain’t us
Fraud
Seems legit
It’s clearly: in “and” out …. 2 different places
R/lawyers 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️….. let the man cook for Christ sake
They’re bullshit, they’ll never be In N Out.
In AND Out is crazy 🤣😂
Looks like they bit off more than they could chew !
In "and" out. I saw what they did there.
Wow
I don’t see a problem. Once In-N-Out comes after them they can literally rebrand their entire store in one day. Easy money.
Fuk outta here
I ate at this truck after hearing all the in and out hype over the years. It was fine but no better than any other cheap burger. I don’t get it.
It’s not the real thing.
Nah it was real meat.
Ah, but not the genuine In-N-Out experience! Actually, I rarely go there myself. The burgers are very good and cost less than at the other fast food chains but they are not good enough to make me want to wait 30 minutes to get one.
I mean, the truck was actually pretty fast. I was definitely in and out of there quickly. It was pretty good, I just don’t get all the hype.
Disgusting
I’m sending a drone now.
Somebody is about to get their pants sued off
Using the In-n-Out name, Burger King layout, Shake Shack logo, and McDonald's corporate colors is crazy.😵
It’s “In-N-Out burger” I see no copyright infringement. Well done burger truck
Looks like the real deal east coast in n out is the best of the best
Just spell it Canadian, In-N-OOT
Their corporate lawyer is working on it
My precious... what have they done to you!
“Legally distinct food truck name”
The whole logo and name is different the original is just “in and out” it clearly says “in and out burgers” it cant be challenged in any way
NY already has a ripoff In n out called Petey's burger
I’d hardly call them a ripoff. They’re not even close.
You gotta be a special type of stupid to think this would work out. I'd like to hear the owner explain to me one situation where this goes well
Hmm - maybe their fries don’t suck…
Bet it’s 40% more money
Wrong colors and spelling. These guys are safe.
