[quote=Anonymous]There are so many people posting here who have never worked in the food service industry or had to cook for your younger siblings out of necessity on a regular basis because your parents were out working.

Baking cookies or a bread at home is one thing. It is completely different when you are doing a repetitive baking task with most likely two oven going and potentially also burners going.

My 15 year old son can use our oven, makes simple meals on the stove, can make a cake mix, etc. No way would I want him working in a kitchen for a job that involved repeatedly using an oven for a job or washing dishes. It’s a boring job after a while do you are thinking about something else while doing a different task , the timer goes off to get something out of the oven and in a rush it is so easy to get burned if you are doing that repeatedly.

Even if you aren’t reaching into an oven if you make a mistake putting in ingredients these are huge batches, so the neighbor is going to be really upset if the mix or dough gets ruined. This isn’t like making cookies for a bake sale, this is someone cooking for festivals, craft shows, farmers markets, etc.
