Those weird ghost kitchen things have more than half a billion dollars to spend on acquisitions?!

I wonder how this came to be - did they already have that big of a war chest, or did they hear they could buy a name brand and go back to their investors to finance it?

Apparently they have totaled ~$1.7B in funding according to Bloomberg:
