Teachers

When it comes to people that are overworked and underappreciated, schoolteachers probably top the list. That’s why Let’s Dish, a Minneapolis based prepared food company, will be providing teachers with free meals every Wednesday between August 10 and August 31.

The deal is pretty generous in its definition of teachers, saying that “any teacher, educator or school administrator” is up for a free meal to feed a family of four to six. Qualifying educators need to create a Let’s Dish account by providing his or her e-mail address and proof of employment.

The goods up for grabs are:

Caribbean chicken fingers with parmesan green beans
Chili-lime chicken with black bean salsa
Beachfront shrimp al fresco
Greek pork wraps
Southwestern pinto burgers.

Considering their website uses the phrase “not enough hours in the day” about a dozen or so times, it’s not surprising that they’re trying to draw in the over-encumbered set. And even though it’s weird that they’re helping teachers lighten the load when school isn’t even in session, you can’t really argue with free.
