Someone who does not know about "permanent delete" and not having backups, especially when switching to a new system, should have no business complaining about this.

Which does not help with non-liquid foods, as their density varies widely.

I share the idea that this is indeed based on recipes from ancient times, but the rest of the world has moved to the 21st century (actually, we even did this for most part of the 20th century already). I think this is in line with the "we will not use metric" attitude of Americans.

That was the point. The recipe stated exactly that "two cups of spinach" without mentioning the state or kind of it. While it could have benefited greatly by including words like "fresh", "cooked", or "blended", it simply shows that volumetric is not exactly the best measuring method for such things.

Which is only an issue if you live to close to that folk. And don't get vaccinated yourself.

Sounds about right. But given that my post was only two lines, you sure are a fast sleeper...

Good that I have not tried to get into Brazilian cooking so far.

Good luck with that.

Keep in mind that if you are in a public space, about half the people around you have an IQ below 100.

Now that is strange. Did you open it?

Here the metric system comes to help: almost any liquid in the kitchen is about as dense as water, so 1ml = 1g.

Oils are a bit less dense, but there you just subtract 10%, i.e. 100ml rapeseed oil is about 90g.

Honey is a far outlier with 1.4g/ml, but it usually given in grams.

The crowd drinking the raw milk probably largely intersects with the antivaxx part of the population and the "horse de-wormer cures COVID" people.

While they are - in a very broad sense - humans, their loss would generally improve the human gene pool.
