A Raw MrBeast Chicken Burger Goes Viral

MrBeast is facing backlash after a fan received a raw chicken burger from his MrBeast Burger restaurant.

MrBeast, who has over 75 million YouTube subscribers, opened his own restaurant franchise, MrBeast Burger, in 2020. Since its introduction, the YouTube star’s burgers have been delivered to over 1000 places in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. Instead of opening physical restaurants, MrBeast decided to operate completely from existing kitchens.

Existing restaurants, called “virtual kitchens,” serve their own menu while simultaneously taking on additional Beast Burger orders to make more money. MrBeast’s menu can be served in almost any existing kitchen, but one customer looks to have gotten the short end of the stick. 

‘Kingsavage07,’ a Beast Burger customer, posted their order on the popular food site r/sh**yfoodporn on November 16. A Crispy Chicken Tender Sandwich was ordered by the customer. However, because the chicken in the sandwich was uncooked, it didn’t satisfy their standards or expectations. Kingsavage’s post went viral on Reddit, with over 40,000 upvotes and 3000 comments from people who were sickened by the food.

The Reddit post’s comments section was flooded with jokes about how raw the chicken was. One reader remarked, “If you feed it, you might get some fresh eggs in a day or two.”

Some others were skeptical about the authenticity of the post. The OP, on the other hand, supplied confirmation that it was genuine by uploading a screenshot of their order receipt. After contacting the Beast Burger customer service team, the consumer received a reimbursement for the raw burger. 

This isn’t the first time a YouTube star’s food have been questioned. MrBeast Burger became a Twitter sensation in May 2021, as users criticized the plethora of raw and overcooked orders they were receiving. MrBeast has already replied to complaints and stated that he will gladly refund and do whatever it takes to make things right.
