Fans keep BTS’ meals in boxes; Twitter thread leads to total confusion
Those with the slightest knowledge of K-Pop will know what BTS is; It’s because the fan following is so strong around the world that the fans keep the buzz alive and on! In contrast, BTS is a South Korean pop boy band with seven members. The band debuted in 2013 and gained millions of followers over the years. Today, their music is loved by every country in the world! In 2021, the K-pop craze announced a culinary collaboration with fast food giant McDonald’s that took the world by storm. Called the ‘BTS Meal’, the special meal includes chicken nuggets, medium fries, medium drinks and two exclusive sauces – sweet chili and cajun. This meal is packaged in a special lavender color packaging and featured the BTS logo above and is only available from May 26 to June 20, 2021.

Fans of the band, known as ‘BTS Army’ or ‘Army’, were swooned by the collaboration and the meals went on sale shortly after its release! It is no longer sold by the fast food chain, and so many fans have ended up preserving the box. Sounds weird, doesn’t it?! Twitter user @teu_army shared pictures of how she saved the box, and people are freaking out. Take a look at the post, it has 16.5k likes and 3k retweets:

The woman placed the BTS meal neatly in a box with a transparent lid and placed it as a display item on the shelf. Those who are not BTS fans were shocked to see this. Here’s what they had to say on the thread:

People concluded that the woman even preserved the food in the box! They commented on how they were able to see mold growth on food. This has created more confusion and outrage on the subject! Some people even comment on the quality of the food by claiming that the food won’t spoil until now, alluding to the use of chemicals in the food. This confusion was later cleared up by @teu_army, who mentioned that the box was completely empty and that she cleaned it before storing it.
This post has the wrong viewer lol clarifies it’s completely sealed and there’s nothing in it so IT’S ALL EMOTION plus why does it smell? I cleaned it all up before I put it in here 🙂 – Mayz | Taekook¿¡ (@teu_amy) April 22, 2022
