According to a spokesperson for KFC, “’Finger Lickin’ Good’ is one of KFC’s oldest and most important trademarks.” since initially filed for trademark protection of its slogan in the 1960s. Furthermore, KFC is insisting that using similar slogan can confuse consumers.

However, Mastrosimone says his logo does not look like that of KFC's, and the slogan is not intended to connect itself to the fast food chain like KFC.

Unfortunately, Mastrosimone does not have enough money to keep on fighting KFC in court and has claimed that this is just bullying by a large corporation. Now he has started a campaign called "GoFundMe" and selling t-shirts to raise money to offset legal fees.
