Why it worked
The video uses a common relatable experience (overestimating one's appetite) and a popular food item to create a short, engaging piece of content. The quick contradiction adds a touch of humor.
Summary

Product placement
Raising Cane's: ACTS - it is a restaurant chain where food is purchased and consumed. Removing it would change what happens in the video because the entire video is about the food from this restaurant. It appears as branding on the food wrappers and in the on-screen text. It ACTS because the food is being eaten and discussed.
