title: #each string in an array with blaze in Meteor
body: <p>I have an array of usernames that I am rendering in a list like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{{#each contacts}}
  &lt;div class="name"&gt;{{this}}&lt;/div&gt;
  {{/each}}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This works just fine, but then I try to get the username from an event:</p>
  
  <pre><code>'click .name': function(e,t){
  console.log(this)
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get this frustrating object <code>String {0: "c", 1: "h", 2: "a", 3: "r", 4: "l", 5: "i", 6: "e", length: 7, [[PrimitiveValue]]: "charlie"}</code> which makes it very challenging to do string comparisons with. Any ideas why this is even a problem or what to do about it?</p>
