Lunchly (stylized in uppercase letters) is a brand of snack kits created and marketed by Lunchly LLC. The brand is promoted and founded as a joint venture between YouTubers Olajide "KSI" Olatunji, Logan Paul, and Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson. It is marketed as a healthier alternative to Kraft Heinz's Lunchables, and is positioned as a more expensive competitor. The product line was announced on September 16, 2024.
Each box includes Prime and Feastables, preexisting popular products offered by the creators, along with three varieties including turkey with cheese and crackers, nachos with salsa and cheese, or pizza.
History
The product was announced to the public by KSI, Logan Paul, and MrBeast as a collaboration on September 16, 2024, following other food and beverage products such as Prime, a range of energy and sports drinks by Olayunki and Paul, and Feastables, a brand of chocolate bars by Donaldson. Both products are sold in combination with Lunchly kits. Lunchly is intended as an alternative to products such as Kraft Heinz's Lunchables, and features a comparison to them on its website. The Lunchly trademark was registered on May 16, 2024 in the United States, May 29, 2024 in the United Kingdom, and June 3, 2024 in Canada.
Lunchly was launched at a time when Donaldson faced a number of controversies. A number of social media experts speaking to Business Insider stated that Lunchly may benefit from the negative attention Donaldson was exposed to, while also noting that the launch may come across as a distraction.
Reception
Lunchly faced negative criticism from a number of internet personalities. Fellow YouTuber Rosenna Pansino criticized the kits for supposedly containing moly cheese. YouTuber DanTDM likewise expressed his disapproval of Lunchly, stating: "This is selling crap to kids who don't know better than to trust the people who are selling it to them." Doctor Mike, a physician who releases educational videos, noted Lunchly's high sugar and fat content. The product was also criticized for being marketed to children.
