I'm making a recipe tonight that calls for 4.5 cups of X brand ofstuffing...I have boxes of a different brand at home already that I want to use but the box is 120g.
How many boxes do I need and yes I'm number challenged!
Thanks!!!!!

Anytime I need to convert measurements I just go to google and type in x cups to x ounces. It does all the work for me.

Ok it did the google thing but going from liquid measurements (cups) to metric (grams) seems to be a bit tricky since volume can be diffrent depending on what you're measuring KWIM (a cup of salt is going to be more grams than a cup of marshmellows).
Anyhoo thanks for the rec, the chart I took a peek at stated that it would be about 4 boxes so we'll see.

I used a box of stuffing mix last week and would estimate it at about 1.5 cups in a package. There's no easy way to convert from weight to volume, regardless of whether you are using imperial or metric measurements, because every substance is different.

Density. That's the missing piece of the formula.
:lol: I had to go look it up because it was driving me nuts.

:laugh: Too funny! I couldn't think of the wording either but I was too lazy to go a look LOL!
