Panera Bread lovers are not happy with a new viral TikTok. The video, allegedly shot by an employee at the chain, seems to show footage from the kitchen of one of its restaurants. In the clip, the alleged employee appears to show countless containers of frozen food — including mac and cheese, chicken and several soups. Panera Bread customers promptly freaked out about the TikTok, as many shocked by the claim that some of the chain’s food isn’t actually “fresh”. As Mashable reported in 2019, former Panera employees have been making similar claims for years. Panera isn’t alone, of course. Several TikTok users have gone viral in recent months for filming videos that allegedly exposed the process behind fan-favorite menu items. These days, you can find TikToks for McDonald’s McNuggets, Taco Bell Cinnamon Twists and even Chick-fil-A’s lemonade
