At issue: This ad for unicorn meat:

The unicorn meat was billed as “The new white meat,” which the pork people’s lawyers insisted was too close to its slogan, “The other white meat.” Presumably “the other other white meat” wouldn’t be acceptable either. So the Pork Board’s attorneys sent a cease and desist order to the unicorn meat industry.

Parody is, apparently, protected speech, however. There is no unicorn meat industry. It was a joke.
