So, first of all, if you think this is BS or a waste of time, please move on to the next thread.
Okay...
I see ya'll saying "I eat a 7oz steak, which equals 50g of protein" and that kind of thing...
So, how exactly do you wrap your mind around starting a phrase in imperial and ending up in metric?
Since I was a kid, I've always known that 1/4 of your meat or chicken is protein, so I just say "I eat a 200g steak, which equals 50g of protein". Hey, it's in the same unit. :headbang:
So, how did this came to be? If you're gonna reply with "it's always been like this" or "it's obvious that meat is in oz and macros are in g", please don't waste your time. I'm actually looking for the historical reasons or what not. Anything with a little logic helps.
Also, why 1cc instead of 1ml, like everyone else?
