Most recipes call for ingredient weight of no less than 1/2 pound... and lesser
quantities by *volume*, as in spoonfuls... so when was the last time someone
hacked off one wing from a chicken because the bird weighed 3 ounces over the 3
1/2 pounds called for... and does it really matter if there's a gram more or
less cinnamon in the sticky buns... heck, I never even weigh booze, just pour
to fit the glass.
