Cultural / Context information for the jury

17th of January 2019 it became widely known in the world press that McDonalds lost a case where they had sued a small Irish hamburger chain called Super Macs. They no longer had the exclusive rights to the trademark name Big Mac within the EU. All global big media reported about this. Only one week later Burger King in Sweden renamed their burgers on the meny board in restaurants - The Not Big Macs were introduced - "The Burger Big Mac wants to be" "The Like a Big Mac but actually big" "The Anything but a Big Mac" "The Like a Big Mac Mac but juicier and tastier" "The Big Mac-ish but flame grilled of course".
