Title: Dry measurements and wet measurements: why are they different?
Post by: RoboG2 on April 08, 2005, 09:18:35 pm

I've always wondered why wet and dry measurements are different.  I have also messed up when trying to cook something by getting them mixed up.

Oh, and i've got a question for you:  Which weighs more, a pound of rocks, or a pound of feathers?

I'd say a pound of feathers is MUCH heavier than a pound of rocks!  Rocks are so yesterday :P  I hope you didnt actually expect people to fall for that :P  What's the point of this topic anyways lol ;D
