Meal Prep Franchise Dream Dinners Sued for $30M
(FranchisePick.Com) According to Courthouse News Service, Dream Dinners Inc. is being sued for $30M by fifteen franchisees.
The “Meal assembly” (or “home meal prep,” as it’s called ) franchise owners claim Dream Dinners Inc. defrauded them by selling “home meal preparation” franchises that it falsely claimed would earn them $30,000 a month.
Among the misrepresentations, plaintiffs claim, was defendant Stephanie Allen’s showing them these misleading numbers, and saying, “in substance, ‘I know the lawyers say I’m not supposed to show this to you, but if you write fast, you can get it all down.’”

Oh no, not another illegal earnings claim!
Why don’t these moron franchisors simply report historical gross earnings and be done with it?
