My school offers both "Clinical Nutrition" major and "Food Science" major. Which is better if I want to find employment after undergrad graduation? Which is better for Nutritionist?

I think I'm interested in Biological science, but I prefer the bio science that deals with more today issues. I like some health related stuff and the cell, but I don't want to be a nurse or doctor of any kind. I like learning about nutrition but don't want to be a nutritionist doctor. What jobs are there that wont deal with evolution but more science that deals with what is going on today (not to say evolution isn't occurring) and how things work. Or some job that allows me to help others by studying biology.
