: : Hi, I've been contemplating inventing a new condiment but I am worried about bringing my ideas forward because I don't want them to get stolen. My question is how do you copyright food? Just the name? the ingredients? : : I'm thinking about bringing my idea to one of the biggies (heinz, hunts, etc.) : : Basically, I want it so I could explain my idea without them rejecting it and making it themselves (stealing my idea) : : Any help would be appreciated, Thanks. : : -Nick : Dear Nick, : A patent may be the best way to acheive what you want, or a trade secret. The patent is unlikly. A trademark may work also. : M.
