What is

In cooking, sometimes recipes call for grams of some ingredient. A gram is in the metric system, and measures how heavy something is. Sometimes all you have are measuring cups and measuring spoons that don’t have the gram cooking measurement.
To convert

as a substitute (assuming the ingredient is
). This way, you can use your existing measuring cup for the recipe you plan on making. To convert grams to cups, you can take the number of grams and divide by

Some measuring cups and measuring spoons also show cooking measurements for ounces. To convert

Keep in mind that converting from grams to cups depends on the type of ingredient. For flour, you divide the number of grams by 125. For sugar, you divide the number of grams by 201. For butter, you divide the number of grams by 227. You can select the ingredient at the top of this page to see how grams converts to cups and ounces for the selected ingredient.

From my research, I have found that the United States is one of three nations (Liberia and Burma being the others) that have not adopted the metric system as their official weights and measures system.
In the U.S. Customary System (also known as the inch-pound system), more than 300 different units exist to measure various physical quantities. Many of those units use the same name but have very different meanings.
All this can make it really tricky to convert measurements.
To try to make things a bit easier for you, I am adding conversion charts for commonly used ingredients.
