Just watched this documentary. It's sad and scary how much control just a few companies have over our food supply in the US. Protest by buying organic, local, and in-season food! Think it's too expensive? Consider the cost of medical bills you'll have down the road.

Develop menus and prepare custom weekly meals for private families in their home kitchen. Must have experience cooking in a residential setting or a culinary school background. (If you just cook for your family and have a passion for it - this could be a great fit!) Must have knowledge of nutrition and special diets vegan, low sodium, diabetic, Keto, Paleo, gluten free, dairy free, etc.) Work 1-3 days per week, around 9am-3pm. You make your own schedule along with your client. Must be able to work without supervision. Dependability/reliability is essential.

Plan menus for individual clients, prepare full menu, and clean-up. Must have extensive cooking experience and some knowledge of nutrition and food allergies. Dependability is a must! Maintain own schedule, and work unsupervised. Candidate must pass background check. Pay will be per in-home cook session, averaging $25-30+ per hour. This would be a great part time job for a stay at home parent who has a passion for cooking - hours would allow you to be away from home during school hours.
