Where these numbers come from
USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 09298: “Raisins, seedless”. USDA lists these household measures for it:
- 1 cup, packed = 165g
- 1 cup (not packed) = 145g
- 1 miniature box (.5 oz) = 14g
- 1 small box (1.5 oz) = 43g
- 50 raisins = 26g
- 1 oz (60 raisins) = 28.35g
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.
