Why do Americans measure everything in cups?
Used a couple of US recipes recently and most of the ingredients are in cups, or spoons, not by weight. This is a nightmare to convert. Do Americans not own scales or something? What's the reason for measuring everything by volume?

I've always measured in ⅓ centiliter bottles. I call that unit a Trio.
I consume 4 trios of water a day.
1/3 centilitre? So 3.333ml bottles? You drink only 13ml of water a day?
Yeah but it sounds less cool if you say thirteen point three millilitres than to say Four (4) TRIOS™!!!
They have a high alcohol diet?
Whoops, I fucked up. I meant to say ⅓ liter
Downvote me. Do it.
