As the title says, it’s mildly infuriating seeing someone say " cook this at 210° " and stuff like that, we are in a international context!! Do i have to put those cookies in the flames of hell or just around the boiling point of water?!

Edit: the cookie thing was just an example and i throw a random number lol

    We don’t measure weights in cups, but we do measure some ingredients (like flour) by volume, so it’s not uncommon here to see a recipe that calls for 1 cup of flour instead of 120g

    However, we do use “ounce” to mean both 1/8 of a cup in volume and 1/16 of a pound in weight…
