It's a gripping legal battle as MrBeast, the legendary YouTube sensation (real name Jimmy Donaldson), takes on the creators of his own famous MrBeast Burger.
The lawsuit, filed in New York District Court, alleges that Florida-based Virtual Dining Concepts served up severely undercooked meats that were simply "inedible."
With a reputation at stake, MrBeast is demanding a fair fight in court to end the culinary catastrophe.

The complaint suggests that the company was more interested in expanding its ghost kitchen concept than in maintaining the quality of the MrBeast Burger customer experience.
"As a result, MrBeast Burger has been perceived as a misleading, poor reflection of the MrBeast brand, providing low-quality products to customers that are delivered late, in unbranded packaging, fail to include the ordered items, and in some instances, were inedible," as reported by the New York Post.
Yeah, the problem with Beast Burger is i can’t guarantee the quality of the order. When working with other restaurants it’s impossible to control it sadly
