How do I measure food?
 

Do I measure food by weight or volume? It doesn't seem fair to me to measure by volume... Consider the difference between 1/2 cup of chopped veggies and 1/2 puree veggies. Thanks

Meat and liquid(ish) substances I measure on the scale. Veggies and fruit I measure by volume. I would think that you'd measure the veggies prior to pureeing them.

Thanks

Use your food guide to get your answer. If it says 1/2c, then use a measuring cup. If it says 4oz, use your scale.

how about pasta im so confused on that how do you guys measure pasta???

Pasta is difficult to measure. Pasta is the cooked pasta put into a measuring cup. I don't eat it that much, but when I do I pack it in because usually I'm using fusili or some other sprial thing. I just cram it in the cup and make sure that it's not going over the top of the cup.

ditto ^

thanks thats what i been doing i mean how would you measure your pasta raw that would be hard
