    Well I have a method for weighing stuff like that (like I said, I weigh hummus) - put plastic wrap on scale, zero out scale, put whatever it is on plastic wrap until you get desired amount and there you go.

    There are similar laws here about the measurements on packets being accurate to within a certain percent. That's why I never bothered with weighing prepackaged stuff. Guess I have to be even more anal retentive lol.

    Here's an easier way. Put the tub of whatever on the scale. Tare it. Scoop out what you need. The negative number on the scale will be the amount of product you used.

    I just started doing that. So much easier!
