These never made it further than "I'm buying this because I like MrBeast/Logan Paul/etc." at least as far as I can tell. These wheelchairs are supposed to become good enough that any regular disabled person that can't walk* will seriously consider them even without knowing who makes them.

*English isn't my first language, no idea what a proper inoffensive way to describe the target audience is. I mean no harm :)

I ordered a Beast Burger on Door Dash without having any clue it was a Mr Beast thing until it showed up and was heavily branded. I wanted a burger and figured I'd try something new. I had never really watched any Mr Beast videos at that point. For whatever reason, he is never recommended to me.

The seasoning was so strong it was a bit hard to eat. I assumed it was covering up for lower quality meat or something. I have no desire to order one again.

I disagree mostly on the basis of Prime.

I see Prime in basically every convenience store, it seems to be a generally successful drink brand.

I knew about the drink before I knew that it had anything to do with Logan Paul and KSI.
