MrBeast, KSI, and Logan Paul's recently launched kids meal brand, Lunchly, has come under fire less than a month since its launch. Netizens have complained about the presence of mold in the cheese portion of The Pizza in the box.
Lunchly set out to be a healthier alternative to Kraft Heinz's beloved Lunchables, but so far the response has not been the best, with people complaining about moldy cheese, even though the expiration date is still a considerable amount of time away.

The latest to join the group of people calling out these meal boxes is Youtuber Rosanna Pansino, who discovered mold in the cheese in the pizza box while making a video comparing it to its competitor, Lunchables.
She publicly bashed the brand, saying that it was time to put an end to businesses that are in it just for the money.
"This is disgusting. I was filming a video comparing Lunchables to Lunchly and was shocked when I opened ‘The Pizza’ Lunchly. The cheese had MOLD!"
She even went on to add that the expiration date was over 2 months away, and upon going online, she discovered that many others had had this experience with these meal boxes.
"The expiration date was still 2 months away! I checked online and found at least a dozen other people posting that their Lunchly’s were moldy too"
Naturally, this sparked quite an outrage on X, with many people coming to Pansino's aid.
While her earlier post and YouTube video made several people point fingers at Pansino, claiming that she was faking the moldy cheese due to her past differences with MrBeast, the unedited video she posted made things clearer.
MrBeast's previous venture into food had been a much bigger success than Lunchly
While this venture did not receive the best response from people, it is worth noting that this is not MrBeast's first venture into the food industry. He had previously launched a chocolate brand called Feastables, which was a grand success and received a positive response from his community.
Interestingly, the meal boxes also include a Feastables bar, along with the pizza and a hydration drink called Prime, created by Paul and KSI.
Fans can only hope that the Youtuber-entrepreneur trio takes this criticism seriously and works on significantly improving the quality control of the kids' lunch meals moving forward.
