Chief Taco Officer: Favor paying $10K to find best tacos in Texas
AUSTIN, Texas - Think you have what it takes to find the best tacos in Texas? Then you should apply to be Favor's first-ever Chief Taco Officer (CTO).
The Texas-based on-demand delivery service is looking to find one energetic, hungry, and social savvy Texan to help track down the best tacos across the state this summer. The CTO will travel throughout the Lone Star State, taste-test tacos, and document their experience through journal entries, social media posts, and more.
"Tacos are one of the top favored foods across all of the cities we serve throughout Texas," says Favor CEO Jag Bath, Favor CEO. "The history and culture behind one of the most iconic foods in the Lone Star State vary from city to city, and we’re excited for our new Chief Taco Officer to discover some of the best and most authentic tacos out there."
Bath says the company came up with the idea for the position because tacos are one of the top ordered foods on the app. In fact, Bath says in the nine years that Favor has been around it's estimated they've delivered more than 10 million tacos.
"We're very passionate about tacos so we're trying to find someone who shares that passion," Bath says.
Bath says they're looking for someone who not only loves food but also someone who is adventurous and who will help educate both Favor and Favor customers about the best tacos in Texas.
