Basically what the title says, what made you choose the culinary/food service industry? Why is this what you chose to do?

    I personally fell in love with it after re-examining my life and what I wanted out of it after finishing cancer treatment. Even though it’s my passion I absolutely don’t want to stay in the kitchen past 35 or so. I don’t want to be giving 70 hours of my life each week to work indefinitely and I don’t think my body will be able to handle it much after that.

      I recommend looking for work at an in-house kitchen for a larger business. I work at a Retirement Home, and get Benefits and a Union. The stress is significantly easier to manage, and the Health/Safety standards are much higher.
