The reporting on food delivery apps tying up with schools here on Ridesharing Forum has gone a long way. Go and check out this website’s complete catalog of news to find several partnerships that these apps have made with schools and universities.
The goal: to make food ordering much easier for students, so they get to eat what they need for their bodies for the next classes of the day.
It’s true that students are often the victims of not being able to find sufficient time to finish their meals during recess, lunch hours, or afternoon snack breaks. The canteen, cafeteria, and pantry are filled with students, so most times are spent just falling in line, with a few minutes left to consume the food they ordered.
Uber Eats is ready to bridge this gap. So, schools and universities have thought sharp to partner with the popular food delivery platforms today, so students could use their gadgets to order their meals, instead of falling in long queues in canteens.
Well, this news story for today is on a much lighter note. It won’t talk about partnerships and details about them, but will reveal the most ordered food by these students. Believe it or not, there are burrito bowls and Indian food. Read on.
“University life is a whirlwind adventure, from late-night study sessions to gamedays and so much in between. What’s fueling that adventure? Food!” stated Uber Eats on its official newsroom. “Thanks to partnerships with Uber for Business, campuses nationwide offer access to a wide range of nutritious dining options for their students, faculty, and staff. Higher education institutions can create monthly meal stipends or cover the cost of a single meal with redeemable vouchers for any or all of these groups, who can then choose from thousands of merchants available on the Uber Eats app.”
So, without further ado, the most ordered and most beloved food by the students via these food delivery apps are:
- Burrito bowls
- Poke bowls
- Wing combos
- Submarine sandwiches
- Build-their-own plates
- Acai bowls
- Indian food
- Lox bagels
Interesting! But, don’t call these matched only for the wealthy students. Everyone could order those items from the menus offered on those food delivery apps. Imagine them being able to try new dishes each day, instead of testing their patience with cafeteria staff who would do nothing but smirk, asking you angrily, “You? What’s your order?”
Burritos are common, but what if you’re served with burrito bowls? Plus, these apps offer build-your-own plates for students, so there’s always something new everyday.
Ever heard of poke bowls? No, not poker bowls. Uber Eats describes these as “a midday combo of salmon, mango, avocado, and rice is perfect for faculty on the go, lunch-and-learns, departmental meetings, orientations, trainings, on-sites, and more.”
Plus, being able to try submarine sandwiches and Indian food? You couldn’t blame those students if they’re more excited for recess than for their Science or History classes.
“From quick, enriching meals for student athletes to dinnertime rescues after dining hall hours, Uber has campus communities covered,” the food delivery app further noted.
