scales come in handy for baking, and smoking or grilling if you brine or do other things to the meat in advance. -- nm - peglegpete Oct 7, 19:45 1
- I use mine all the time for food, and also for knitting. I can weigh an item and convert weight to yards of yarn. -- nm - loosilu Oct 7, 19:53
buy a damn scale! how else would they give portion sizes? - loosilu Oct 7, 19:24
you can eye ball half a box or bag, then divide that by half again to get four servings out of one container, use a rubber band or baggie for the rest -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 7, 18:30 2
- I could, but a 2oz serving is 1/7th of a box. Would be so much easier if they'd list cups per serving. -- nm - MojaveMeg Oct 7, 18:36 1
  - too much variation! depends how tight you pack it. -- nm - loosilu Oct 7, 19:25
