Re: Food Scale
I imagine if you eat a lot of chicken/beef/meat products it will come in very handy so you can know how many ounces you are eating. Otherwise you can just use a measuring cup for all your food measuring needs.

Re: Food Scale
How do you buy your meat? If I buy a pound of meat and there is 3/4 pieces in the package I can usually say this is half the package. half a pound.
