There Are 10 Cups Of Brown Sugar In A 2 Kilogram Bag Of Brown Sugar
...I told you I was a bit OCD.
I'm working on my ingredient pricing list. Shopping yesterday, with a semi fussy baby who enjoys throwing things off of the cart (repeatedly), was not an enjoyable experience. I had planned to jot down a few prices as I shopped but that didn't happen.
However - I needed to stock up on a few things that happen to be on my ingredient pricing list, so I was able to fill in a few prices using my receipt. One of those items was brown sugar. Which comes in a 2 kilogram bag - I'm pretty sure that's the largest bag that I, as a regular everyday customer, can purchase.
I measure brown sugar by the cupful, not by the kilogram. This creates a problem because cups measure volume, and kilograms are a measure of weight. I was tired and certainly did not feel like taking my unopened bag of brown sugar and measuring it out cup by cup - so I hit up the Google.
Much to my surprise and disbelief, this site came up as one of the results. Common foods, measured out so beautifully and so well organized, I thought I might cry a little.
Have you ever wanted to know how many grams in a tablespoon? How about milliliters to a gram? And the answer to my query, how many cups in a kilogram. For all sorts of foods! Spices to beef to bamboo shoots (?!?) to cauliflower and yes, brown sugar.
But OCD Rina made an appearance and wanted to make sure. I don't know why I even bothered to look it up, because I'd want to test it for myself anyway. I really need to relax.
In any case, I measured out exactly 10 cups of packed brown sugar from my 2 kilogram bag. I was pleasantly surprised.
And now I know that there are most certainly 10 cups of brown sugar in a 2 kilogram bag.
Have a fantastic weekend, dear reader - I'll be working hard on the product and pricing list and want to have it finished by the end of Papa Bear's weekend. Wish me luck!!
What's your big project for the weekend?
