Where these numbers come from

USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 12155: “Nuts, walnuts, english”. USDA lists these household measures for it:

  • 1 cup, chopped = 117g
  • 1 cup, ground = 80g
  • 1 cup, in shell, edible yield (7 nuts) = 28g
  • 1 cup shelled (50 halves) = 100g
  • 1 cup pieces or chips = 120g
  • 1 oz (14 halves) = 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.
