Funny, as always… but I wonder if Dana knows that Mars candy company was founded by Forrest Mars, and is still a business owned by the Mars family. (Probably)
Kinda reminds me of Warner Brothers threatening to sue Groucho Marx for using “Casablanca” in one of his movies.
Groucho promised to counter sue for trademark infringement of the “Brothers” name. They were the Marx Brothers, and therefore Warner Brothers had appropriated part of their corporate name to advance their own public image.
The company name being your own name doesn’t matter. McDonald’s keeps suing people named McDonald who want to use their name, even when the defendants’ business and business name predates the burger chain.

The Mars lawyers must be better than ours, because they are out of this world.
