S-R Food Panel Seeks New Members

We’re looking for people who like to eat and talk about what they’re eating.

Applications are being accepted for vacancies on The Spokesman-Review’s reader food panel, starting in January.

The panel meets one evening each month (usually the second Wednesday) to sample and rate new supermarket items and compare different name brands of the same type of food - everything from popcorn to pasta primavera to pudding (most products are edible).

There are no real qualifications, although a strong stomach helps, as does a sharp wit (we publish panel members’ comments, so writing ability is a plus).

If you think you’d be a good addition to our group, send a brief letter explaining why to: Food Panel, Features Department, The Spokesman-Review, P.O. Box 2160, Spokane, WA 99210 (or fax to 459-5098, or e-mail to rickb@spokesman.com). Be sure to include your age, occupation and a daytime telephone number.
