I’m a system integrator, and though I don’t do it right now, I’d consider myself an expert in dairy. I could see someone specializing in chocolate similarly.
The reason people don’t know about these jobs is because they aren’t advertised very well. My MS in mechanical engineering barely touched on it and I sort of fell into it on accident by knowing someone in the industry.

I know someone who did go into food science to get into a chocolate production factory - they were done eating chocolate for good after their first 6 months.
Turns out all you can eat samples is a great way to get food fatigued real fast.

The best way to hate something you love is to make it your job.

That’s no fucking joke. I started with a passion for learning about computers. I love what I do now because I’m a one man company and answer only to myself and my contracts, but I didn’t turn on a computer outside of work for fucking years because of the burnout.

I was once at some children party thingy where they had free cotton candy. My friend and I ate so much that we completely swore off of the stuff for all eternity.
Then I went and got married to a gal with a cotton candy machine…

My brother in law did similar…worked in a chicken factory, not in production, for a while…put him off chicken for a year or so.

Not if you work at a brewery.

Only if you are an alcoholic.
