Google says Coriander refers to the seeds, while Cilantro is the leaves. So they are two distinct things from the same plant in the US, while the rest of the world calls anything from the plant Coriander, which seems a bit confusing to me.

I still like imperial for cooking. At least now that I have most of the conversions memorized.

My mom always used the saying, "A pint's a pound, the world around" Which is true for water.

Hhmmm, is it?? :grinning: :wink:

An Imperial pint is about 20% larger than an American pint.

True, what a dumb saying for something that is really a US thing

"A pint of water weighs approximately 1 pound, specifically 1.043 pounds in the US customary system. However, the saying "a pint's a pound the world around" is not entirely accurate, as a British Imperial pint of water weighs about 1.25 pounds."

AFAIK a pint in the US is poured by volume, to 16 oz.

What’s the volume of a pint in the UK?

It's 20oz. :beer:

And for even more on the ounce to beer conundrum:

How big is a pint

How Big Is a Pint?

This is because a pint in the United Kingdom is bigger than a pint in the United States. The UK pint is 20 fluid ounces, while the US pint fills up 16 fl oz. However, this translation is not that simple, as fluid ounces do not equal one another across the Atlantic. Here is the breakdown of volume between the two countries:

  • The British Imperial fluid ounce is equal to 28.413 milliliters, while the US Customary fluid ounce is 29.573 ml.
  • The British Imperial pint is 568.261 ml (20 fluid ounces), while the US Customary pint is 473.176 ml (16 fl oz).
  • The British Imperial quart is 1.13 liters (40 fl oz), while the US Customary quart is 0.94 L (32 fl oz).
  • The British Imperial gallon is 4.54 L (160 fl oz), while the US Customary gallon is 3.78 L (128 fl oz).

You're hurting my brain...

Or a meter?

That was my first "legal" drink on my birthday when I turned 21. I got through it, but I have never ordered one since.

I was also on the cusp of the drinking age change. It went to 21 just before I turned 18, so I was out, but everyone already 18 was grandfathered in, so for three years everyone a year older than me could drink legally while I couldn't.

It was also the first year that freshmen in college were not legal to drink... not like that stopped us though.
