How much is a 'cup'



Recommended Posts

Hi guys. I keep reading about a cup of food, or half a cup, quarter of a cup etc.

It's not a measurement we use over here (a cup of tea for example is usually served in a mug).

Does anyone know roughly how many Fluid ounces is in a cup?

Thanks Lx

In the US, a " cup" in 8 oz. Fluid or dry. Do a half a cup is 4oz, 1/4 cup is 2oz. Etc. hope that helps

Hello just wanted to chime in and say the UK ounce is slightly more than the US ounce. 1US cup=8 US ounces but 8 UK ounces = 7.68 US ounces

Had a measuring pitcher that had US/UK/Metric and noticed the difference in the markings. I always thought it was the same but, apparently not.

Not a huge difference but good to know, especially if liquid medications are involved. ;-)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
