What is "a cup"? is it 200 mls do you think?

MaggiePuccini · February 2012

I notice that a unit of measurement on myfitnesspal seems to be 'one cup'. I find this quite random and vague. I assume it's somewhere in the region of 200mls? A mug would be about 250 I suppose!

Hey there! A cup is 237 ml... you can safely call it 250 to make measuring easier!

it varies depending on what you are weight but if you want good conversions I use this site

Lol...sight...I think our whole system of measurement must be random and vague...

A metric cup is 1/4 litre. 250ml.

250 mls.

Hi thanks for that! I'll look on that site now. hmm, so it's a bit more than the 200mls I was budgeting for. good job I checked!
