I’m tired of guessing which country the author is from when they use cup measurement and how densely they put flour in it.

    454 ml! Because 1 gram of water is also 1 milliliter.

      Density of whole milk according to first google answer is 1,034g/cm^3.

      It’s been a while, but would that make it 438,68 ml?

      Edit: But I totally agree with your statement. SI/ metric units is superior in every way with how easy it is to convert between them. At university in Norway I had American textbooks in all but one of my chemistry classes and all used SI/metric and proper names for the elements

        The US isn’t as entirely devoid of metric as a lot of people get the impression. We all learn it in school and are perfectly familiar with it, we just never made the switch for everyday units, so a lot of people lack the intuition around what the values mean. I can’t tell you what 25c feels like without thinking about it for a minute.

        I’m curious though, does anyone not use the proper names for the elements?
