Aren't insects basically protein? Would the answer be on a libra pad do you think?

Actually Amy...yes. By hand.
Also was quality control manager... thinking about it now, I was just a kid!! I started there part time when I was 12, after school and in the holidays etc. When I left school I started full time, left when I got married.  :)

How did you work when you were 12? It's against the law and has been for decades. Was this in NZ or Tassie?

I thought the same thing Mich. The law says you must be 14 and 9 months to be employed.

In NZ. Dunno, the boss was my uncle and needed the help after school - to break fudge into 1cm squares for in ice-cream, and it just basically went from there. I got taxed  :-)) so I'm guessing the work law people knew about it, never actually thought about it to tell you the truth... :-))
