FAQ
- Can I measure Onions, Raw by count instead of cups?
- Count is unreliable when piece size varies. For accuracy, weigh a few pieces to find the average, then multiply.

- Fresh-cut has tighter piece size and less surface moisture loss, so the table values match reality more closely. Pre-chopped may have 10–15 % weight drift.
