I just realized while cooking that a measuring-cup cup (as measured out as 250mL in a glass measuring cup) is the same amount(s) as one of the actual plastic baking measuring cups that go inside each other like Russian dolls lol

I thought they were different somehow (something something imperial metric yadda yadda yaddda)

Your turn to come clean Lemmings!

**EDIT: to clarify, I mean volumetrically for measuring liquids

    Why are you declaring the inaccuracy of their scale as if it’s fact? You don’t even know what kind of scale they’re using and you end your comment with some grade-A “everyone is dumb except for me” crap like you somehow shut down their entire argument.

    Not to mention how easy it is to test what you’re arguing about. I literally just did this a few days ago with my roommate who was trying to bake some brownies. 3 scoops of flour placed on a scale resulted in 3 different readings that had a range of ~15g. I don’t care how inaccurate you’re going to claim my scale is, that’s a very large discrepancy.
