| Description of Mark | The mark consists of a circle with an inner ring. Inside the circle are two pecan half caricatures holding hands, one stylized to look like a man--a heart seemingly bursting from his head with three drops below the heart--the other like a woman, floating in a circle and hovering over the words "Better Halves," which are on top of and separated from the word "Pecans" with a horizontal line. There are two pecan designs behind each caricature. |
