Quick answers

Where these numbers come from

USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 04053: “Oil, olive, salad or cooking”. USDA lists these household measures for it:

  • 1 tablespoon = 13.5g
  • 1 cup = 216g
  • 1 tsp = 4.5g

Fractions of a cup are the cup weight scaled down. 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.
