Interesting question Chuck! Ironically, and years ago, my sister had my father and I put on aprons and chef hats and took a picture of us boiling. When showing the picture we always said, "Please do not disturb the chef's". I'll have to try and locate that picture.

Going back to the question, we do make a gourmet product like Minehart Gap said. And chef's do use specific knowledge and specific equipment to make something unique. So, technically, we could call ourselves chef's if we wanted to.

You know what, I think I'm going to locate those hats too!
