when you say T and TM, it should not be on the food, but on the product packaging, but on the trademark and registered trademark:
Circle R is the mark of "registered trademark", which means that the trademark has been registered in the State Trademark Office and passed the examination by the Trademark Office. R in the circle is the initial letter of English register registration. A registered trademark has the characteristics of exclusiveness, exclusiveness and uniqueness. It belongs to the owner of the registered trademark and is protected by law. No enterprise or individual may use it without the permission or authorization of the owner of the registered trademark, otherwise it will bear the tort liability.
TM is the abbreviation of English trademark, which translates into commercial mark, that is, trademark. That is, the words, figures or symbols marked with TM are trademarks, but they may not have been registered (unregistered ones are not protected by law). In China, TM on trademarks also has its special meaning, and its TM logo does not protect trademarks. It is different from R, TM means that the trademark has been applied to the State Trademark Office, and it also means that the trademark has been applied first in the process of examination. China adopts the principle of applying first.
