Nutritionist & Chef? My friend was studying to go to culinary school maybe 1-2 years ago? That was when he was in high school. The upcoming year, he's going to be going to college and he said that he's going to study towards being a nutritionist and a chef...and I was thinking that those two were pretty different things. Aren't they? Wouldn't it be like a double major or do they kind of "flow" with each other? I'm just confused. Thanks =)

I don't really think they are that different.. I mean check out the food network most of those shows are on healthy cooking these days and thats what alot more restaurants are focusing on
that could make him big bucks if he can find a way to make great food and it also be extremely healthy.
Also it gives him 2 different solid career roots once he gets out of college incase he decides he no longer likes one of them ]
OMG, no a nutritionist learns so mucn more about food, like calorie content, and how calories are burned, and the nutritional content of food, how much fat, sodium, sugar carbs, etc. etc. They also learn about dietary restrictions, like what foods a diabetic can eat or should avoid. Nutritionists often get jobs at hospitals and nursing homes. A chef learns about how to cut, cook, spice and store different foods. And chefs can even specialize in sauces, desserts, meats or fish. Sushi is another one. Chefs can work on presentation also. Chefs learn how to cook for crowds and also about kitchen management. The two diciplines are very complimentary, and he will be very employable when he is done.
Hope this explains things. There really is so much more information avialable about each one
