Where these numbers come from
USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 19080: “Candies, semisweet chocolate”. USDA lists these household measures for it:
- 1 serving = 14.5g
- 1 cup large chips = 182g
- 1 cup mini chips = 173g
- 1 oz (approx 60 pcs) = 28.35g
- 1 cup chips (6 oz package) = 168g
Fractions of a cup are the cup weight scaled down. The tablespoon figure is the cup weight divided by 16, since USDA doesn't list a tablespoon for this ingredient. The teaspoon is a third of the tablespoon. Metric-cup figures assume a 250ml cup, and Australian tablespoons hold 20ml. Weights under 10g are rounded to 0.1g, everything else to the nearest gram.
