Tasteocracy by Eurofins Food Integrity and Innovation

"I don't always qualify, as many tests are mid day, on weekdays, when many are working. But the ones I have qualified for have been great! Staff are nice, helpful."

"A fun way to partake in food marketing research and earn some money, but there are never ever any surveys or tests available. When there are, they always fall in the middle of the week during work hours - used to have a lot more weekend options. More Monday tests would be nice to see. Update: Can’t seem to qualify for any test these days. The app is even more buggy when submitting a qualifying survey so not sure if that’s the issue or something else."

"I had my first experience with Tasteocracy this past Sunday at the Plymouth, MN location. I showed up, presented my ID, and was settled in a space divided from others by a mini 3 wall section. We got a bottle of water to sip between samples. We were given a total of 4 different samples to taste and evaluate. There were a few minutes between each sample. We were reminded to sip water between each sample. My answers were inputed on an electronic pad. I was a little slow to begin with, but got quicker when I was familiar with the questions being asked. My check is in the mail! Fun experience."

"I use to get qualified for testing fairly regularly and have been involved in numerous tests over the past few years. However the past 8 months this company has made it impossible to qualify for testing. In the past I occasionally would be disqualified for testing but would usually find a test that I qualified for. I have now been disqualified for tests 8 times in a row. I don't have any food allergies, always answer questions truthfully, but for some reason that is not good enough for this company anymore. On their qualifying surveys they ask if you recently have purchased a particular food group i.e. (deli meat, cheese, crackers or something of the sort) and of course I have most recently. The most recent survey I had purchased all the food categories they asked for and within the past month or even sooner. I was disqualified. ?????? For what reason???? Don't you want testers that have a knowledge base and have actually purchased these types of products????? I called their customer support to complain but they only provide a generic response such as the customer is looking for different criteria???? Are you serious?? What criteria? How could I not be more qualified. Makes no sense and like I said this is the 8th and 'FINAL' time. I deactivated my account. May be I will search for other food testing companies. I would 'SKIP' this one if you are looking for one."

"Well organized with covid going on. Make money eating drinking and trying products for research!"
