Leatherhead, Surrey. At the British Food Manufacturing Industries Research Association we see various experiments being carried out on food. The amount of pips in a strawberry are added up on a little counter by a scientist; another tests the strength of a black currant skin on a special machine. The 'stiffness' of jelly is measured; good panning shot along a line of brightly coloured jellies, where the first is reasonably high, the second a bit squat, the third has it's mould taken off to reveal a collapsed jelly. Lemon curd is seen being cooked in little pots in an oven; some boil over and when taken out are compared with lemon curd tarts. M/S panning along four groups of uncooked sausages labelled A, B, C and D; two from C and D are put into two separate frying pans and cooked; the sausages in one pan disintegrate as they cook. Cuts exist - see separate records. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV. IT'S FULL OF GREAT DOCUMENTARIES, FASCI
