Doughbelly, welcome! Glad you came out of voyeurism and posted...


Your post was very interesting. After I read it last night, I went and checked out the US patent site too. She is basically claiming that she invented the whole idea of stuffing a strawberry... hmmmmmm. Seems like she wants no one else to ever stuff a strawberry again. So she filed the patent in 2005. I did a quick search for stuffed strawberries and found a recipe posted back in 2002 for them.
So I'm going to look some more into this when I have time. I wonder if you can actually comment on patents pending to show that the idea existed before the person filed for the patent? I think she has a great product - but I think the idea was around long before she did it. I think she also has some great ideas for the stuffing. But again, I'm not convinced she invented it. I don't think she even needs a patent - she has a great product. Others are bound to try to copy - that is business.
In her web site though, she makes it seem like the patent has been granted. In the US Patent site - it is just in the application status.
Verrrrry interesting!
