Where these numbers come from
USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 01017: “Cheese, cream”. USDA lists these household measures for it:
- 1 tbsp = 14.5g
- 1 cup = 232g
- 1 tbsp, whipped = 10g
- 1 oz = 28.35g
- 1 cubic inch = 16g
- 1 package, small (3 oz) = 85g
Fractions of a cup are the cup weight scaled down. 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. Full source list.
