I everyone! How are you all doing? I'm really good, thanks for asking...

Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone knows how many ml are in the MFP definition of a cup of water? I have a water bottle at work and have been counting 2 cups for every bottle.

Any help appreciated, maybe the info is on here somewhere, but I'm very lazy.

PS anyone who wants to add me as a friend, feel free. I am doing my best to be less unreliable and forcing myself to log in everyday...

    I would fill up your water bottle and pour it into a 4 cup measuring cup to see how many cups it holds. :)

    a cup is 8 oz or 250 ml according to today's exchange rates. Check back tomorrow though.

    1 cup = 8 fl oz = 250 ml

    It's a surprisingly small amount. Most of the glasses and mugs in my home hold more than 8 oz.

    Resurrected necro thread but this is the kind that I like to see. Basic info that does not change and newbie member actually used the search function. Good job!

    To be picky, 8 fl oz = 1 cup = 236.588 ml. The US "legal" cup used in nutritional information is 240 ml. A metric cup is 250 ml.

    30ml in an ounce, therefor 8oz (or 1 cup) is 240mls.
