How to Determine the Weight of Foods Without Scales: Tips for Those Who Count Calories
27.05.2024 11:03
For those who watch their figure, it is important to know the exact weight of food products, because the number of calories consumed depends on it.
But how can you do this if you don’t have scales or if they are out of order for some reason?
The tips below will help you with this.
Check the weight on the product packaging.
If the label indicates the number of grams, consider it a done deal.
For example, if you need 200 grams of meat, and the package contains 400, just divide the contents in half - this will be the required weight. Do not be afraid to cut off a little more or less, the difference will be insignificant.
Let's take another example: a package of pears weighing 500 grams. To determine the weight of one pear, you need to divide 500 grams by the number of pears in the package. This will give you the approximate weight of one pear.
Measure with glasses and spoons
If you need to weigh liquids or cereals, use glasses and spoons to measure them.
Information about the number of grams can be easily found on the Internet.
