Among Us shaped McDonald’s nugget
BTS is one of the most iconic K-pop groups worldwide, to the point where many companies have recruited them as their brand ambassadors.
One of these many brands is McDonald’s. The fast food chain recently launched “BTS Meals” in selected countries around late May, which quickly became an internet sensation.
This netizen’s BTS Meal is exceptionally noteworthy because they found an “Among Us” shaped nugget, which they later auctioned for ฿3,100,000 (~USD100,000) on eBay.
Let’s see how this seller became a baht millionaire among us.

Just one week later, on 4th June 2021, the fast-food favourite sold for upwards of ฿3,100,000 (~USD100,000).
Polizna also added that the food is expected to expire within 14 days, and thoughtfully mentioned that the precious item will be frozen, air-sealed and sent prior to its expiration date.
