Many thanks theresa, as you say its a very difficult area to write, as it can be very detailed. I really appreciate the feedback

That post was informative and easy to understand. Were that my Chef instructor had made it so comprehensible. He went into days of chocolate. It really is an in-depth subject and you did a fine job in your presentation. Thanks for this post!

In response to another request I have added how to make chocolate to my site. I'm sure a few will be interested.

I've worked in frozen foods most of my life and made most of the foods in that area, but I've had experience and knowledge of most of the other areas as well.

I have one of the best jobs, i get to design the product from scratch. At last count I had 450 products that i had designed or worked on active in the UK market and currently have 20 in canada.

My step mom worked for a pickle factory and old us about how many bug parts per/ whatever volume were allowed - EW! Actually, I think a lot of it is interesting - we have a Sunbeam factory here and Just Born (Peeps) factory and they give tours. Very neat, really. Can you tell us which exact industry you're in and what capacity?
