Product placement
Green Onion Cake Man: ACTS - this is a restaurant that sells food, and the creator is reviewing and eating their food. Removing it would change what happens in the video. The restaurant's address is also shown on screen, which is part of the business's identity and marketing. This is a key part of the video's content.
