Your zero may be correct, Rowls, in which case millilitres or millimetres is perhaps just the same. ;) :)

Sometimes but very rarely the destoning machine splits the olive in two...if this occurs the vandalised olive will be counted has half of one.

Steve, the longstanding Official Fragmentation Rule is that any Unit of half or more than half of the average size is Counted as a full one, whilst any of less than half-size is not.

Half-Units are not otherwise recognised.

It's dead easy, Steve. :D

If there are indeed fragmented Units, most will be readily identifiable as below or above half the average full Unit size.

If there is still doubt, then having identified an average-sized full one simply compare each fragmented item with it; thereby establishing whether the latter is above, below or equal to half of full size.

Reminded me of that old joke about the couple walking through Naples on a baking hot July day, when they see an aging latin lady sat on the step of her house, legs wide apart wearing absolutely nothing under her skirt and eating a dripping slice of juicy water Melon....

Speaking a bit of Italian the young lady commented to the old woman "it must be cooler like that" ... The old woman replied " no ... but it does keep the flies off my melon"

MDWat, since I have already Estimated the number of Food Units at 44, you are invited to amend your own Estimate, though I must stress that you do not strictly have to.

The problem with identical figures like these is that in the case of their proving to be winning ones then the 5 points have to be shared.
