VDC

VDC claim his case is "meritless" and "riddled with false statements".

"VDC consistently strives to improve quality and customer satisfaction, and any negative customer reviews reflect the experience and opinion of a very small minority of MrBeast Burger customers," it said.

"Instead, having elevated greed over his word and the truth, he will face the consequences in court when VDC files its claims against him."

"When VDC refused to accede to his bullying tactics to give up more of the company to him, he filed this ill-advised and meritless lawsuit seeking to undermine the MrBeast Burger brand and terminate his existing contractual obligations without cause," the company alleges.

On Monday, Donaldson filed legal action in New York accusing VDC of not ensuring the quality of the burgers at MrBeast Burger, claiming they were, at times, "inedible" according to consumers.
