INFOGRAPHICS: 1 handful = 30 grams

When people ask me how much I add salt or sugar, I say - a pinch. If we are talking about flour or cereals, I can say something like "a handful", "pinch", "fist", etc. It turns out that just such domestic measures have standard equivalents in cups and grams. Of course, the size of fists at all different and I found infographics averaged measure taken. In the end, if you're really curious, you can compare your "hand action" standard.

In addition, all depends on the products that you are measuring. For example, two hollow of chips equals 30 grams which contains 150 calories.

1 fist = 1 cup
Rice and pasta - 200 calories, fruit - 75 calories, vegetables - 40 calories.

Palm = 85 g
Meat - 160 calories, fish - 160 calories, poultry - 160 calories.

Handful = 30 g
Nuts - 170 calories, raisins - 85 calories.

Two handful = 30 g
Chips -150 calories, popcorn - 120 calories pretseli - 100 calories.

Thumb = 30 g
Peanut butter - 170 calories, cheese - 100 calories.

The tip of the thumb = 1 teaspoon
Vegetable oil - 40 calories, mayonnaise and butter - 35 calories, sugar - 15 calories.

So now, biting a handful of nuts, think about how many calories you get with this.
