Lets fight about weight versus volume versus eyeballing, shall we? :}
I am yoking, I dont care to fight, but I got the NASTIEST email from someone who was accusing me of leading people astray with my measuring on the scale heresy!!
Yaaay!
Okay, this is *all I am saying.*
I WEIGH my food. I weigh my food because if I WANT to eat more, you cant believe how much I can cram into a cup, half cup and still call it "half cup" This is an insurance measure for ME.
I have weighed my 2 or 3 ounces of meat, 1 slice of cheese and salsa and THEN put it in a cup and it fits into a 1/2 cup measuring device.
This human (the one whom I have ever so offended) is a fan of the eyeballing method.
Now, some of my best friends are eyeballers, my best Bub is an eyeballer and it works GREAT for him!! Afwifey is an eyeballer and it works great for her!!
What I consistently try to point out is, if you are going to be a measurer, which I obviously support, BE CONSISTENT, however you choose to do it!
I am not sure why this is like a math problem or a religious question, I dont have to be WRONG for your way to be right!!
I am not saying YOU are wrong because I insist that *this* is the way I protect my investment!
I am saying, "this works for me, this might also work for you."
But you, ultimately decide what is, or is not the way for you!
So! Just wanted to share this about that and say if you wanna roast me about my pretty orange scale, then stand in line, but the office window to that line is now closed!
Ticket number five in the "forum bully" line, its your turn!!
Yaaay!

I'm generally an eye-baller but how in the heck would someone who is an eye baller have a problem with someone recommendeding measuring portions out? That doesn't even seem logical. Even if an argument could be made, and I doubt it could, that eye balling was better, what would it matter that you, a random person, has this opinion and pushes that opinion? I think some people are just unhappy and looking for a fight...
