MrBeast hit by Luncly mold scandal as Rosanna Pansino calls food ‘disgusting’

The Lunchly range of food products has received new reviews, such as MrBeast is embroiled in yet more fast food controversy.

MrBeast might be the biggest name on YouTube, but he hasn’t had a good few months lately, between being sued over his upcoming Amazon show and ongoing complaints about the quality of his food products, including MrBeast Burger and Lunchly.

Lunchly is a range of snack kits marketed by MrBeast, in partnership with Logan Paul and KSI, containing Prime (also promoted by KSI and Logan Paul) and Feastables (promoted by MrBeast).

Previously, it’s been MrBeast burgers that have come under the harshest criticism, but this time, food YouTuber Rosanna Pansino complained about finding moldy cheese in a Lunchly meal that was still two months away from its due date of expiration

“This is disgusting,” Pansino wrote on Twitter. “I was shooting a video comparing Lunchables to Lunchly and I was surprised when I opened ‘The Pizza’ Lunchly. The cheese had mold!

‘The expiry date was still two months away! I checked online and found at least a dozen other people posting that their Lunchlys were also blooming.

Pansino has criticized MrBeast in the past, with some fans accusing him of faking the Lunchly footage, which also features appearances from DogPack404 and Jake Weddle, who have been most involved with the recent labor allegations against MrBeast.

However, this wouldn’t be the first time she’s been unfairly attacked by rabid MrBeast fans, as they issued death threats against her when she complained about being edited out of one of her videos.

Pansino claims the moldy item was missing the sealant around the cheese, needed to keep it fresh, but it’s unclear if that’s the same reason for other reports of moldy food.

She’s certainly not the first to highlight problems with Lunchly, with streamer DanTDM accusing the promoters of “selling c*** to kids who don’t know any better,” which in turn led to a feud with KSI .

MrBeast and the other YouTubers have yet to respond to the allegations, but while Lunchly is currently only available in the US, there are plans to bring it to the UK in the coming months.

Some campaigners are already warning against the brand, with Nika Pajda, from youth campaign group Bite Back, insisting that “Lunchly is the latest example of high-fat, high-salt or high-sugar products targeting young people, and it is particularly worrying to see ho. Powered by social media stars who are so influential to kids.”

In theory, an upcoming ban on HFSS (high fat, sugar and salt) ads in the UK, both online and before 9pm, should limit the line’s exposure, but it remains to be seen ‘effectiveness of these restrictions.
