Trump Steaks
Trump Steaks was a brand of steaks owned by Donald Trump that launched in 2007 and were sold at The Sharper Image[1] and QVC.[2][3] Trump was featured on the June 2007 issue of the Sharper Image magazine to promote his then-new brand of steaks, which were billed as the "world's greatest". [4] Prices of the four packages of Trump Steaks varied from $199 to $999.[5] The Sharper Image closed the following year after filing for bankruptcy.[6] The Trump Steaks trademark was canceled in December 2014 according to a trademark search through the United States Patent and Trademark Office.[7]
During the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign, a Super PAC supporting John Kasich produced an ad mocking Trump Steaks.[6] Steaks from Bush Brothers Provision Co. were on display at Trump's election-night speech on March 8, 2016 during which Trump claimed them to be "Trump Steaks", Trump-branded wine and water were also displayed, as an example of Trump's success in business.[8] Observers there noted the Trump-branded steaks were produced by a butcher in West Palm Beach, Florida.[2] In an interview with Anderson Cooper the following day, Trump explained that he does not process the steaks but instead purchases them from local suppliers before subsequently relabeling them.[8]
