Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups?

Because it’s a few dozen times faster? You can literally reach into a container and take out one cup and that’s it. Works for me ost liquids or grainy stuff. Not from US btw.

Only if you have cup sized cups. Otherwise it’s just gonna throw your ratios off

We have measuring cups, along with similarly standardized spoons and liquid cups same measurement just a different form factor.
Everyone who cooks has at least one set. I literally never had (nor needed) a scale in the kitchen until I started baking, in my forties.
