Chew on This!

Here's an excellent article from the New York Times on the gum tasters at Cadbury. It brought back such lovely memories of my time as one of their beverage tasters. What a great job that was. The training was so much fun, learning to tell the difference between candy strawberry, fresh strawberry, strawberry Jell-O, cooked strawberry, strawberry jam ... my palate will never be the same! I don't think I'd like to be a gum tester, though. Too much chewing. I'd imagine your jaw would hurt after a full day's work.
