The kitchen is fascinating - from a distance. Watching someone cook can be exciting… until you have to do the cooking and it becomes another chore. (Unless you’re one of the lucky ones who like cooking and food experiments.)

The Equal Measure can make the kitchen a little bit more exciting. You can still use it to measure flour and sugar, but you’ll also be able to translate your recipes into something like “add as much flour as the amount of honey made by a beehive in a day” (that’s 300 oz.). The measuring cup will teach you all sorts of useful things: the volume of half a human brain, how much water there is in a cumulus cloud the size of a bus, the weight of a thousand sweet corn kernels and much more.
