Let's Talk With Some Weirdos

So most USA recipes require 1, 2, 4, or 6 eggs. Three eggs is rare. Then if you double those you get 2, 4, 8, or 12. None of those numbers are multiples of 5. Makes sense why they'd sell 12, 18, or 24 eggs in a container in the US, because that's how our recipes are written.

Commercially, they go by weight of egg yolks and whites, grams may be more common, but I've mainly seen ounces or pounds.

In countries who actually use the metric system, do your recipes reflect this? Do you have multiples of 5 eggs in the recipes and in the egg cartons, or is it all still basically 12 eggs and divisions of 12? Curious minds want to know...

Can't speak for other places, but we use imperial measurements in our recipes

But, I do think that @VChen should go over, shinny up that pole, get that flag and take to her neighbors front door and slap him in the face with it.

And, of course, please record and share.

Or just get a new one and offer to trade. Then dispose of it properly.

Cups, tsp, tbl mostly

I hate it when they get into ounces.

Ah, okay. That's what we use too.

nono, that's swallows. Banana is the intergalactic internet measuring standard.

Well my sense of smell definitely works. I used a curry spice in a dish and couldn’t figure out what that awful smell was.

I'll have to get some images of my boys again for my bachelor flock thread. Haven't updated it a lot thanks to the weather

Today I discovered taking pictures in the twilight doesn't work. I mean, I could have told me that...
