Does the anger around MrBeast Burger revolve around packaging or the food quality?
Donaldson launched MrBeast Burger in December 2020. While the announcement may have come as a surprise to some, others saw it as the natural progression to his free restaurant concept.
The launch proved to be a massive success because of Jimmy’s massive fan following. The iOS app even took over the YouTube app based on sheer popularity.

It is paramount to note that these do not reflect on the entirety of orders served, but it was enough to affect the image of MrBeast Burger to a huge part of the community. Although, the packaging was not part of the experience ruining aspects of the burger chain. It offered a distinct packaging with the individual’s name written on their bag.
Is MrBeast Burger worth spending for?
A lot of fans noted that such problems are part of running a large-scale operation like MrBeast burger. The project is a gargantuan task, with hundreds of branches seemingly popping up overnight. Furthermore, Jimmy’s popularity could have led to the quality control issues unexpectedly.
Significantly, Jimmy’s massive fanbase comprises millions of devoted followers. This can quickly turn into a logistical nightmare, as showcased by his previous venture. When he opened up a restaurant with a free food sign displayed on the front, people flocked to it due to it being associated with MrBeast. Cars lined up for miles and eventually cops had to step in and shut the place down.
