Get Paid $1,000 to Eat Cheese


Submit an application for the side job of your dreams—or your worst fears
If you're a cheese lover and you're looking for a side gig that pays well, then Sleep Junkie has the perfect opportunity for you. The website, which focuses on sleep tips and mattress reviews, is conducting a study to understand the correlation between eating cheese before bed and the likelihood of experiencing nightmares. This connection is one of the most popular European sleep theories and a recent study conducted by OnePoll found that 43% of British people believe this old wives' tale about cheesy nightmares.

Sleep Junkie is looking for five cheese-loving applicants who will earn $1,000 for upping their nighttime dairy intake. The study will also try to determine whether different types of cheese might have varying effects on dreams. Survey respondents even named cheddar and mozzarella cheese as the biggest culprits.

To be chosen as one of the five participants in the study, an applicant must be at least 21 years old, own a smartwatch or fitness tracker that tracks sleep, maintain a consistent sleep schedule, and be able to sleep alone during the trials. You'll also need to be meticulous in documenting your sleep quality, energy levels, and dreams throughout the three-month study.

As we approach Valentine's Day, committing to sleeping alone for three months might be a hard sell for some, but for single pringles, this is a great opportunity to shine. A little personal charcuterie board and a gouda night's sleep? Sign me up.

Although the experiment will include vegan and lactose-free cheese, applicants also can't have any physical aversions to dairy and no existing sleep conditions. The experiment begins in March and selected participants will be paid $1,000 at the end of the study.

The details of the actual cheese consumption, meanwhile, appear to be something you'll learn on the job. Those chosen for this experiment will have to eat an assigned type of cheese each week with a one-week break in between cheese varieties to ensure accurate results. Cheese types will include blue, hard, soft-ripened, and processed varieties. It's not specified exactly how much cheese one will need to eat before bedtime, but the cheese has to be eaten at the same time each night throughout the trial.

Enduring potentially three months of messed up dreams for $1,000 sounds worth it to me, especially if there are weeklong breaks in between cheeses. If you're a cheese lover and you're looking for a side gig that pays well, then Sleep Junkie's cheese study is the perfect opportunity for you. Apply today and see if you have what it takes to be a "dairy dreamer."
