Popular creator DanTDM isn’t impressed with MrBeast, Logan Paul, and KSI’s newest venture, Lunchly. Expressing his disappointment, he took to X (formerly Twitter) to call out their business publicly, for selling anything just for money. His critique caught Paul’s attention who gave him a befitted answer.
Here’s how Paul reacted to the whole Lunchly drama involving DanTDM.
How Logan Paul reacted to DanTDM’s Lunchly tweet
MrBeast, KSI, and Paul recently inaugurated their new grab-and-go food line, Lunchly, which claims to offer “not boring” lunch boxes. It will serve as a rival to the long-running American brand, Lunchables. Paul emphasized that they not just want to sell high-quality meals but also a “healthier alternative” to its customers in a statement. Following this controversial claim, many creators came out to slam the business and brand its products “unhealthy.”
One of the creators was DanTDM, who critiqued the brand publicly in a tweet. Reacting to the launch news, he mentioned creators selling things to make money and questioned its benefits to fans. He accused Lunchly founders saying “This is selling crap to kids who don’t know better than to trust the people who are selling it to them. Do better,” he adds.
This tweet caught the attention of Paul, who responded to DanTDM’s criticism on X. He revealed how YouTube creators have spent their lives creating content and building brands, and now they are more focused on creating businesses. He slammed DanTDM for ignoring their rival Lunchables’ lead controversy and reacting to their new brand launch. “You don’t say anything when Lunchables faces bans for allegedly containing LEAD but when we create a better version, you’re upset? Then don’t eat it,” he added.
After Paul addressed DanTDM’s criticism, even MrBeast took to X detailing on what makes their brand healthy. He stated that the brand prioritizes providing people with the best. Giving an instance, he mentioned how their Turkey meal consists of “80% fewer calories, 60% less sugar, and more electrolytes”.
Additionally, he revealed how they used real cheese and high-quality meat in their meals. His tweet further read, “Obviously eating fresh chicken and broccoli is healthier but if someone is going to eat a premade meal like this (which millions of people do thru lunchables) then I think giving them a higher quality version at roughly the same price is a net good imo and why we launched Lunchly. Also as we get economies of scale and can get things cheaper we will be only improving the product more and more.”
