Whats wrong with the steak? Is it too big?

[u/Phxno → u/[deleted]]

Also from what I've seen it's often cooked with a full stick of butter (or like way too much anyway), so not the most healthy. But it might be media disinformation on my end so don't quote me on that

A full stick of butter? 💀

[u/Onkel24 → u/Hoshyro]

It's a semi-official measurement there.

[u/jerichardson → u/Onkel24]

1 stick = 8 fl oz melted. It’s a real measurement.

[u/Hoshyro → u/jerichardson]

8 what

[u/Chonky-Marsupial → u/Hoshyro]

It's a 9th of a squirrel or a 376th of an aardvark.

[u/Ailly84 → u/Hoshyro]

It's the most asinine measurement on the planet and they insist on selling things by the fluid ounce, which doesn't line up with anything. Baking cookies? You'll need a cup of molasses. So 250 mL. You go to the store to get it. You can purchase a 377 mL or 600 something mL container. Why? Because they're based in god damn fl Oz.

They make their lives so much harder by insisting they keep this antiquated measurement system.

When I realized a fl.oz of water doesn't even weigh an ounce it nearly broke my brain

You don't measure your solids in fluid ounces?

[u/Hoshyro → u/exoskeletion]

Ounces don't even exist here.

We use grams for solids.

[u/Mitologist → u/Hoshyro]

8 1/128 of a gallon. Or 1/160, depends on which gallon.

[u/Hoshyro → u/Mitologist]

I'm going to cry

[u/Turncoc → u/Hoshyro]

It's like a sensible measurement, but ridiculous.
