The
People’s Food Movement is a movement of people
dedicated to the idea that people should design their
own food. They should pick the types of food they eat,
design the formulas, and/or help decide what their local
stores carry. In order to facilitate this happening
people will submit product ideas to Dave’s Gourmet,
who runs and owns The Movement. The rules below govern
product submission.
- Submitters
need to submit a formula/recipe to Dave’s
Gourmet, Inc. in writing (showing legibly the ingredients
and percentage of ingredients by weight) along with
a sample of the product and a signed completely
filled out product submission form. If both are
not received by Dave’s Gourmet the product
may not be considered for The Movement. Dave’s
gourmet will issue a written receipt for any product
received within a couple of weeks.
- Samples
should be made in accordance with the sample guidelines.
If you have questions, you should just ask Dave’s.
This is designed to save you and The Movement time
and energy. Submitting products that can’t
be manufactured would be sad.
- Any
product that is produced by Dave’s Gourmet
for the movement becomes the sole property of Dave’s
Gourmet, Inc. including the name, formula, and any
related propriety processes or ingredients. The
Movement’s product may only be commercially
produced by Dave’s Gourmet or its assignees
and not by the submitter or any other party.
- Many
products in the food industry are similar. Dave’s
Gourmet may have contemplated or be contemplating
many items at any given time. Some of these items
may be similar to ones submitted by members of the
Movement. Also, products submitted may be similar
to other products submitted. In order to avoid any
confusion or misunderstandings Dave’s Gourmet
will issue a receipt within a couple weeks of receiving
any sample and formula. In this receipt Dave’s
will note if the sample is similar to an idea that
they have previously seen or considered or to one
that they are currently considering. If it is, than
the submitter will not get credit for the idea.
If it is not something previously seen or considered,
then the submitter will get credit for the idea.
- Whether
any product is produced is at the sole discretion
of Dave’s Gourmet, but the input of the People’s
Food Movement will be heavily considered.
- If
a product sample/formula is produced and becomes
a product of The Movement, then the product will
bear the logo of the movement. The creator/submitter
of the product will be paid for the product. Their
pay will be one third of the profits of the item
for three years from the first date of production.
Profits are defined as 5% of net sales (gross sales
less returns, bad debts, and credits). These monies
will be paid at the end of the calendar quarter.
- If
a product becomes part of The Movement, The Movement
retains the right to publicize the name of the creator.
- The
rules and terms of the Movement are subject to change
at the discretion of the movement’s management,
Dave’s Gourmet, Inc.
- The
member who is submitting the formula warranties
that they have full rights to the formula and it
does not violate any sort of property rights. The
member further Indemnifies the movement and Dave’s
Gourmet relating to any property rights issues relating
to the product they submit.
