Re: Serving sizes (generic)
'a pints a pound the world around' is useful for water based measurements. Water, Milk, Juice, Beer, etc all are basically 1oz (wt) = 1oz volume. (cup=8oz=1/2 pound, pint=16oz=1 pound)
When I measure out my cereal in the morning, I put the bowl on the scale, measure out cereal, then add 8oz of milk. I know it's 1 cup.
I don't know how to measure chicken by volume, but a deck of cards is about 3oz I've heard.
