Fun fact: cringe comes from an Old English word which meant to crumple or fall in battle. So power word cringe must be a synonym for power word kill 🧙

I know it’s 1/48 cup but that’s a stupid fraction and doesn’t follow any logic, one of the main reasons it should be thrown out

Well, it could be sarcasm but:

1. It doesn’t make sense, what is the witty commentary?
2. Their post history is abrasive and aggressive about silly stuff like this

There’s nothing inherently more natural about cooking in the metric system, people just prefer base 10 these days. People balk at 4 quarts to an arbitrary gallon but love 1 liter being the arbitrary cubic volume of 10 ten-millionths of the distance from the Equator to the North Pole passing through Paris [but not quite].

Cooking by volume was natural before everyone had accurate kitchen scales. You didn’t have a digital tare button in the 1800s but you did have a bunch of containers in common sizes.

what happen when you need 3/4 of a cup ? Or 1.5 cup ?

Generally you have 4 sizes: 1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4. You just use a combination of 2 sizes (1+1/2) or multiples of your smallest size (3x1/4).

You usually don’t need high precision for cooking, common ratios are good approximations (1:1, 1:2, 1:8, etc…). Baking is a different beast and I don’t know how people did it before weight.

Also, fuck tablespoons and teaspoons. They should just be replaced with 1/16 cup and 1/32 cup.

Since I’ve seen you trolling in multiple threads and know you get a kick out of it, I’ll bite:

What in the world is wrong with this humor and why does it have anything to do with modern males?

Pretty fucked up for you to assume that random white guy is Jesus. This could just be Marty and Doc eating street fish and day drinking with a local

Fuck, which one of you idiots launched with the log level at debug…
