I was thinking this too. Chefs do have to taste their foods and maybe this would be an acceptable solution. Don't know how to do that in a kitchen with other staff though. Maybe after tasting, discreetly spit into a paper napkin/towel and throw it away? For tips on how to do this discreetly, ask a little kid.

I agree with the eat and spit routine... that way if you have to eat more than just one bite to get the recipe right, you aren't hurting yourself... there is no law that says you have to swallow...

I'm sure your mini stall will work itself out soon...
