Ten Jobs for Foodies #1: Personal Chef
Working in food service can be hectic, but working as a personal chef is a job that most foodies would love. As a personal chef, you mostly prepare meals for one family. This is a job that hardly seems like work because many times you become close to the family you are cooking for. This means that it's like cooking for close friends, rather than customers.
Ten Jobs for Foodies #2: Restaurant Critic
A foodie's dream job would have to be working as a restaurant critic. Being able to try new restaurants and write reviews is something that many foodies would do for free. Being paid to do such work seems unbelievable. The only downside to this job is remembering to keep a low profile so that you don't get special treatment when you visit a restaurant. This ensures that you are able to write an honest review.
Ten Jobs for Foodies #3: Cookbook Author

Ten Jobs for Foodies #4: Culinary Arts Instructor
