Fans of YouTuber MrBeast in the UK are “shocked” about the UK prices of his range of sweets and chocolates.
MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, has the fourth most popular YouTube channel worldwide with 144m subscribers. He specialises in gaming and stunt videos but recently expanded into food, with his range of Feastables confectionery.
TikTok user Hollie Stubbings shared a screenshot of a Facebook marketplace page selling Feastable cookies for £12 and chocolate bars for £8. She captioned the post: “I love MrBeast I’m just shocked at how much they are!”

The new products of Sour Green Apple and Sour Blue Raspberry gummies were launched last week, in collaboration with fellow gaming creator Karl Jacobs. In an announcement Tweet last week, the official Feastables account said the new sweets are plant based and only contain 5g of sugar.
In the video, Hollie said: “Someone is selling MrBeast cookies and chocolate bars in the UK and look how much they are. Does anyone know how much they actually are in the US?”
Feastables are not currently sold in any major UK shops. The company has struck an exclusive deal with Walmart in the US and the confectionery can be delivered to American addresses from their website.
According to Walmart’s website, a Feastables Original Chocolate Bar costs $2.48, around £2, while a bag of Chocolate Chip Cookies will set you back around $4.74, or around £3.83. Other TikTok users in the comments broadly agreed with these prices. One said: “I think they are like $2-5.”
Despite these price differences, there has been no announcement as of yet about whether the products will be made available in the UK.
