How is this any different from Kirkland brand stuff from Costco? They just happen to have a reasonably high bar because they're playing the long game. It's not the practice that you likely have an issue with, it's the individual.
- prepend 3y agoGood example. Kirkland stuff is good. It would be shady if Costco put their name on anything and didn’t care about their product. So if you see something with the kirkland brand, you have some expectation of quality. And if you have a problem Costco will fix it (or drop the product). The MrBeast brand doesn’t really stand for anything. And he doesn’t correct quality problems.

- red-iron-pine 3y agoKirkland Brand isn't Ghost Kitchens, it's usually reputable brands who slap a label on their product to build additional sales channels. The most common example is that Kirkland Vodka is widely reported to be Grey Goose, and it's speculated that Kirkland Mac & Cheese is just repackaged Kraft. No Brand or Quality Control needed; mostly contract and supply chain control since you're dealing with brands that already do good QC.
