Food Scientist or Technologist
ReplyDeleteAbility to reason original solutions to problems, curiosity, detail-oriented
$59,520
The work of food scientists or technologists plays an important part in maintaining the nation’s food supply by ensuring food safety. Food scientists and technologists usually work in the food processing industry, universities, or the federal government to create and improve food products. They use their knowledge of chemistry, physics, engineering, microbiology, biotechnology, and other sciences to develop new or better ways of preserving, processing, packaging, storing, and delivering foods. Some food scientists engage in basic research, discovering new food sources; analyzing food content to determine levels of vitamins, fat, sugar, or protein; or searching for substitutes for harmful or undesirable additives, such as nitrites. Others engage in applied research, finding ways to improve the content of food or to remove harmful additives. They also develop ways to process, preserve, package, or store food according to industry and government regulations. Traditional food processing research into baking, blanching, canning, drying, evaporation, and pasteurization also continues. Other food scientists enforce government regulations, inspecting food processing areas and ensuring that sanitation, safety, quality, and waste management standards are met.

Many food brokers have regular customers which helps produce a steady income to subsidize their additional clients.
Statistics state that the average annual wage of food brokers was $46,829 in 2006, however due to the nature of the work this is probably not a true representation.
