To be honest, after reading this I want to know when Girl Scouts will allow boys to join. Their organization sounds a lot better to me.

To regulate glucose levels, you should eat within 30 minutes of waking up.

that's all i can think of looking at this chart. 1 kg = 1,000 grams. even in volumes, 300ml of water = 300 grams. the whole oz, cup, tbs and tsp is making my life hell trying to input things into myfitnesspal.

It IS ridiculous that we're still not on the metric system. I'm on a fitness site and there was a request yesterday for food database entries to be based on weight, not description ("a large slice of pizza," "a small apple"), and shown in grams.

Would love one which takes metric into consideration as well. All of my cookbooks are from back home but everything here in the UK is sold in grams. The first time I tried making chocolate chip cookies which called for a stick of butter I tried carving the giant block of butter I had into what I thought from memory…

My only comment - not being much of a cook - is that pounds are a measure of weight, not mass and the two are related but not the same.
