A lady employee of Delacre Biscuits sorts through sub-standard product from rows of steadily moving, freshly-produced biscuits on the conveyor belt at the company factory at Lambermont, near Liege, southern Belgium. Seated opposite a colleague also dressed in white overall and hair net, both women concentrate on the job, removing the snacks that fail quality control for whatever reason means the biscuit is unfit for sale. The biscuits are from the Moments range created by McVitie’s, the British company owned by United Biscuits. Multitudes of these snacks are manufactured before export across Europe. Delacre Biscuits is a subsidiary of United Biscuits having been making biscuits since Brussels pharmacist Charles Delacre decided to sell chocolate in 1870, which was then regarded as a medicinal tonic.
