让人羡慕的职业——职业品尝师其实不简单

分类: 实用英语 

职业品尝师的工作不是收钱去吃点心。现实是这份工作重复性高、技术性强。

Being a professional taste-tester isn't just getting paid to snack. The reality is that the job is repetitive and highly skilled.

As a kid, everyone fantasizes about getting to sample ice cream and cookies as a full-time career. The reality is the job is very detail-oriented and very repetitive.

When evaluating a product, testers can't just label it as "good" or "bad." Instead, a mathematical score has to be given for every aspect of the food, with testers identifying the strength of each specific flavor.

"It requires such a high level of concentration," one taste-tester told TODAY.com.

Sometimes a tester will have to sample a specific product, such as a cookie or cracker, for weeks on end.

"You're getting graded on what you do, so it's kind of stressful. You want to do a good job, and it's totally quantitative. You go into test-taking mode," the taste-tester added.
