Also, are food critics more likely to gain weight than other jobs? I guess if they were health-food critics maybe not but I'm not sure. How much money do they get?

I know that according to an article I read a few days ago, some papers will hire you as a food critic with no background in food. But then the readers aren't getting their monies worth when they read that review. To be a credible food critic and get the pay that is deserved, some time of food background is needed. Does that mean education?? No. But a solid background in the food industry such,as a taster would do, or a well known and respected chef.

"The word critic comes from the Greek κÏιτικός, kritikós - one who discerns, which itself arises from the Ancient Greek word κÏιτής, krités, meaning a person who offers reasoned judgement or analysis, value judgement, interpretation, or observation. " To me, this means that no, you do not need an "education" or diploma in food to be a food critic..... it's like anything else, we all have the right to offer our opinions about anyhting we like, but I would probably respect the opinion of someone who has been trained in that particular subject, or knows a great deal about that subject, than someone who hasn't... hope this makes sense...... I am sure that the "experts" whose opinions are in newspapers, on TV etc., would make good wages - why don't you write to one and ask them - to be sure
