That is to say, consumers would generally not be expressly searching for a pack of Lurpak butter, whereas they may be exclusively looking to purchase a Red Bull, as it is their energy drink of choice. Thus, it is very reasonable and realistic to assume that the possibility to be deceived is very likely.…
