    I’m a visual person and this is great!  Thank you.

  2. if everybody would just use grams, life would be much easier.

  3. EvBismute

    Imagine needing a ouija board to understand conversion units

  4. Brains are so different. This chart makes me want to rip my face off.

    I’m not saying it’s bad, it is just incomprehensible to me.

    Like magic pictures.

    I’m saving this for future reference. Thanks for sharing!

    The fact that some people prefer using this method of mesurement over a using a fucking scale is beyond me.

  7. Just a warning: there is at least one error in de tablespoons to cups conversion. If 1 cup is 16 tbsp then ⅔ of a cup can’t be 10 tbsp.

  8. Today I learned 1/3 cup and 1 tsp are the same measurement.

    It’s really funny because just this morning for some reason I woke up and was trying to remember the order of cups to pints to quarts to gallons.

    I love this! And YES grams and mL are easier, but while we have what we have, this is wonderful!

  11. UniqueLady001

    If only the measurement of a gallon was the same in each country. I’m guessing this will be the US gallon conversion?

  12. romcomplication

    I use grams most of the time and this is still helpful! Thank you!!

    I would never understand this.. why make life this hard when grams exist? I swear a part of me dies everytime i want to try a new recipe but is written in cups

  14. iknowiknowwhereiam

    I’m an American and convert any recipe that’s not in grams. It’s so much easier! The only measurement my country does right is weather temperature

  15. I bake by weight. And I cook by cups and spoons because that’s much much more common (especially for non-baking recipes) and I’m not going to grab a scale every time I need to measure out 8 spices for an Indian recipe. This is a cool way to see it, for me.

  16. Shocking how many people can’t read a chart with simple lines directly pointing to the conversion. I printed this out, thank you OP! (I give a pass to non-americans who don’t know what any of these measurements are to begin with)

  17. dblyuiiess

    As someone who grew up in the US- this is why I’ve gone to weight and metric

  18. BlahLick2

    I’m a metric guy but still have a need to convert spoons <-> cups on occasion so find this beautiful and informative

  19. I like it. I use flow charts, so this makes sense to me 😆. As an American, I use a scale and grams for baking and cups/spoons for other measuring that isn’t so finicky.

  20. aFalseSlimShady

    I never cared about metric until I started baking, now Im on the verge of resorting to terrorism to see it adopted.

    This looks incredibly handy! Both for baking and for alchemy.

    I am pretty sure that if you engrave this into a lead tablet, bathe it in a mixture of copper salts and gall diluted in ocean water, and then expose it to the light of the first new moon in the Hebrew month of Adar, angels will come to you to reveal the secrets of transmuting lead into gold using the philosopher’s stone.

    Thanks for posting! Sorry for all the folks that feel the need to blame you for the system lol.

  23. Vegetable_Burrito

    It’s fascinating how different brains process information because this looks like some kind of satanic incantation or an astrology chart.

  24. honeydew_fawn

    Oof. I learned a much simpler one in culinary arts.

  25. Goosherpusher

    A scale is the way to go for most things baking it’s just more consistent

  26. Fu.ck all the cup and all the spoon measurements. I will pour ingredients as my heart desired.

  27. You know what what my cheat sheet is?

    (Hold down button in my phone)

    How many tablespoons in a cup?

    (Listen to answer)

    No lie, that diagram is very cool, but asking phone never fails me

  28. No_Sir_6649

    Ooh man. Sry to tell you. Is that standard or imperial pint?

  29. Striking-Version1233

    Well, its wrong. Either 48 teaspoons in a cup of 2 teaspoons in 2/3rds of a cup. Those are not both possible.

  30. Visible-Winter-9541

    I’m even more confused than i was before

    I finally just put the King Arthur’s weight chart on my fridge so I didn’t have to convert for every recipe. I love my scale! I wasn’t an easy convert because I came from a family of home bakers.
