The word breastaurant appears in our archives on Nov 7, 1995 and on 26
other occasions since then. Don't know whether that is enough to keep
someone from trademarking the word, but I think that unless they are
offering extra comfy surroundings for breastfeeding mothers to eat in while
caring for their babies, they shouldn't be allowed to use it.
Feeling grumpy at the proprietary attitude in general

Kristiansand, Norway
where a restaurant featuring local food actually has a dish on the menu
based on (cow) colostrum, which is a farmer's delicacy here - guess it
can't be a breastaurant without stealing someone's trademark so we'll just
have to refer to it as 'that udder place'
sorry, could not resist!
