Used a couple of US recipes recently and most of the ingredients are in cups, or spoons, not by weight. This is a nightmare to convert. Do Americans not own scales or something? What’s the reason for measuring everything by volume?

    I’m from the UK but we have a set of cups for old recipes (and American recipes)… Honestly it’s easier in a lot of cases to measure stuff out, I like it. What’s really annoying is that US and UK cups are DIFFERENT SIZES.
