Yep, along with 'cups'. That seems like a weird measurement. I think maybe it's more normal to have kitchen scales in the UK as our recipes generally have ingredients in grams or ounces.
I'm okay with cups as long as we're talking about something that packs happily into a cup, like sugar or flour. It's when you're looking up asparagus spears in the MFP database and the units are in cups that I'm o_0
When I'm baking I find recipes almost exclusively use cups for dry foods.

A nice digital scale will set you back less than US$20, and is useful for more things around the house than you'd expect. Need to calculate postage? Digital scale. Need to portion out yarn or unspun fiber (OK, I have odd hobbies, I admit it)? Digital scale. Kids' science assignments? Digital scale.
I use mine all the time, sometimes even for food. Best $14 I ever spent.0
