It would take a lot of schooling, but the pay would be high.
Get a degree in chemical engineering, with a minor in culinary arts, and maybe an additional minor in marketing.
Then get a job as a food development engineer.

You could work in Quality Control, sometimes known as Quality Assurance, in a plant that manufactures food-stuffs.
Or you could work at a test kitchen for a chain restaurant that oversees the tasting of new dishes, or again tests the quality of food or recipes.
You could also always work your way up to the executive chef level. Have Food Network on the cable TV? I've seen plenty of happy people on some of their shows, performing these jobs.

Absolutely!
"Design" of food flavoring additives, and how to use them in industrialized production of convenience & prepackaged foods can get you rich. The downside is that almost all of this work is in New Jersey.
International Fragrances & Flavors (IFF) is the biggest name in this industry. For more info, you might look at the book "Fast Food Nation".

Cooking IS chemistry. Chefs make a very good living. Chefs in resorts can make as much as $100,000 per year. Is that enough?
