Many people head to restaurants to celebrate important life events (birthdays, anniversaries, etc.), or simply to have some fun with friends.

TURNING YOUR LOVE OF FOOD INTO A CAREER

It’s clear that we love to eat, but many people also love working in the food industry. Did you know that there are dozens of career opportunities in this field? For example, food critics and writers review the dishes at restaurants and write about culinary trends, popular new dishes, and almost any other chow-related topic in which they’re interested. Food marketing workers are employed by production companies. They design marketing campaigns that tell the public about new food products. Dietitians and nutritionists are experts in the helpful qualities of food and give advice to people to help them lead a healthy lifestyle or reach a specific health-related goal. And then, of course, there are chefs , cooks , and food preparation workers —the professionals who actually make what we eat.
