What is a Food Critic
A food critic is a writer who specializes in writing criticisms of food. Like theater and movie critics, food critics are supposed to provide thoughtful, well-informed, and objective information to the public so that members of the public can make decisions about where to spend their money. However some may also engage in more general food writing.
Becoming a food critic takes time. Many food critics pursue professional experiences in the world of food, attending culinary schools, working in restaurants, participating in farming, and so forth. A good food critic is extremely knowledgeable about food, from how certain foods are harvested to the history of various dishes. Food critics also have very well-developed palates, and they may specialize in a particular area.
Food critics may move between publishers over the course of their careers, or start working for the food section of a paper and working up to a position as a food critic. A handful of critics become well known and well respected, with most primarily being known only in the area they serve.
Professional integrity is very important for food critics. Many make reservations and visit restaurants anonymously, so that they get an idea of how a restaurant serves ordinary customers. They also make repeat visits so that they can make fair and balanced assessments of a restaurant and its offerings. Implications of favoritism or bribery can ruin the reputation of a food critic.
This is what food critics are like. They describe and evaluate the food, providing opinions on its quality. These can be used as a reference for readers to make decisions.
A. Food critics have the right to score the restaurant.
B. It's important for them to be familiar with varieties of food.

D. Therefore, they can learn about every aspect of the food industry.
E. After considering all aspects of the dining experience, they generate ratings.
F. Food critics primarily write about restaurants from fast food establishments to fancy restaurants.
G. Once a food critic has gained experience, he or she can start writing articles for magazines and newspapers.
