or just use metric

"Came in handy" get it? Get it? Masturb... Ok. I'll go now.

Am I the only one who prefers a simple chart? These diagrams always take more work.

I struggle with every preparation advice in the UK.. Actually I'm surprised that there is 24 hours a day and not rather 73 of somethig funny

I'd piss on the grave of those that made this system, also yay for comment nr69

What I like about metric is It's all based around water. 100ml of water= 100g. boiling point of water is 100°C freezing point is 0°C.

conversion factors are not that hard to understand or remember. why metric people so lazy?

1l=10dl=100cl=1000ml
xiaodown
1 Kl = 10 hl = 100 Dl = 1000 l = 10000 dl = 100000 cl = 1000000 ml

Yeah! The metric system is way more difficult! You multiply things by 10. Who even knows how much 10 is? A tea spoon is a lot more specific!
GrImmgur
Nobody has ever said that it's more difficult.
iamlordriddle
Cool

A teaspoon in sweden is actually exactly 5ml, a tbl spoon is 15 and a cup is an ever changing meassure for coffee
BenSnow97
So how much is a cup multiplied by a teaspoon?
Pi times one eigtheenth of a half-cup times pint. Simple, eh?
ChloeRed
gets better. US and Imperial have the same names, and same tea sppon size. but different pint/gallon, so the chart doesn't match Imperial.
LurkerOfDarkness
Also different ounces for different stuff. Dry and wet gallons... Just make the switch already.
A dry or wet gallon you can work with. If I say "A gallon" though, is that 3.8 or 4.5 litres? 2 sizes, one name.. Metric's biggest...
...advantage is a litre is a litre, a kilo is a kilo. There's no ambiguity possible.
Exactly, and it's all factors of 10, just move the decimal. And the units are logically connected, through our most vital substance, water.

You came in your hand? And you needed this chart?..
CyranoDeBurlapSack
A literal hand-fuck ton of cream was made.
Literal?..
As in, actually instead of figuratively.
So there's a ton of cream somewhere? The use of "literal" seems wrong (as in, the opposite of right,) here.
You are literally correct, as I meant literally in the sense that it should've been replaced by figuratively.
Rhadamanthus
Or you could just use metric and fuck all that bullshit.
HairyOrange
Lol

That's commie talk
esp as if you use Imperial (not American), this doesn't match up with the sizes..

YAY CANADA AND THE REST OF THE WORLD!
IneigiTsukuyomi
This is America. We only use metric when it comes to pop/soda. The rest of the world has got it wrong. We are right.
dudeondudeaction
Seriously!
YuJinX5
@Rhadamanthus as an American I forced myself to use only metric units and now that is the system I use. It is so much better!
But base 60 systems have better divisibility
LinearOperator
Then let's count in base 60 and use the metric system. While we're at it, lets define everything with c=G=ħ =1
Really people I'm being down voted? Fuck math facts rights? Try dividing 10 into 2,3,4,5, and 6 I bet I'll divide 60 faster.
assholeteddybear
If we were meant to use metric, then Jesus would have had 10 disciples, not 12
GoddamnitClown
If that was telling us we were meant to use a duodecimal system then we have seriously not succeeded at that either.

I thought there were 13 of them...
Ok 12 at a time. One died and was replaced making the technical number 13

It should only be one circle saying Liter. mili in milimeter is just a prefix. You can actually use milicups as well.
Whitefox789
Bam!
I mean, no one thinks "oh, one cup, that's 48 teaspoons".
reversinatir
I do when scaling recipes
...dude it's like 2 years since I made this comment :P
So?
AntonioStark
Don't forget centi and deciliters.
MonsterRooster
You can also add googolliters if you are baking something really big.
AdamNeverAskedForThisJensen
I don't know who the heck would downvote you, you are indeed correct.
But the imperial aren't using prefixes. Why isn't centicups or milicups in there? A correct one should just be one circle with Liter in it.
You're right, imperial doesn't use prefixes but metric does.
Ofishial
Probably because this seems to be for cooking, and I don't think you need anything smaller than milliliters for that. It'd be extraneous.
uusinimi
Metric cooking usually includes liters, deciliters and grams. For smaller amounts than 0,5 deciliters tablespoon or teaspoon is often used.
You, sir, do not handle the metric system yourself. 1 liter = 10 deciliters or 100 centiliters. Deci, centi, milli uknow? Sooo simple
prefixes are not exclusively for metric system. You could as well use centicups as well, even though its never used.
Deci: 1/10, centi: 1/100.
Oh. Derp.
