“Fluid ounces” are not exactly scientific measurements. Milliliters are.

The point is that ounces are not scientific. They are only used by excplicitely non-scientific countries and people.

Got it.
The Egyptians and Greeks can’t be considered scientific because they didn’t use metric, never mind that they measured the size of the Earth using shadows.
Newton used ounces, obviously not scientific.

But what’s a pinch, smidge, and “to taste”?

I never thought I’d have to give this advice, but if you don’t know what ‘a pinch,’ ‘a smidge,’ and ‘to taste mean’ you need to watch more porn.
[jk, you already watch too much porn]

I’m too European and too sober to understand this.
