Cultural Measurement Challenges

The episode highlights the measurement discrepancies between American and British cooking methods, particularly how ingredients like butter are measured. In the U.S., baking often relies on volumetric measurements like cups, while the UK typically uses weight measurements in grams. This cultural difference leads to confusion, especially when trying to convert recipes, as Eva's experience reveals multiple conflicting answers for how many grams are in a cup of butter. The episode emphasizes that this issue not only complicates baking but also highlights broader cultural patterns in how different countries approach measurements.
