minus-squareViking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·5 hours agoNo recipe lists 78.862 mm of anything. A recipe with metric units will default to gram amounts that are divisible by ten and thus infinitely easier to halve than “5/8 of your grandmother’s good cake spoon” or any such folksy nonsense.
