The Truth is for a long time I never really saw the need to use a digital food scale in my kitchen. I always loved those cooking programs where the cook doesn't measure, just pours and tosses ingredients in the mixer.

The problem becomes when I do that, the recipe does not come out quite right! I need to measure and make sure I am adding the right amount so the recipe is balanced and delicious. The
digital scale makes me look good!

I started using the scale and my measurements became more accurate. Best of all, I started using to for portion control. I found out those nice size burgers I was making were WAY too much when I weighed them out. Yikes! No wonder we were gaining weight!

I can also buy items in bulk, weight it out and then repack it in smaller servings. The scale makes this task so much easier!

One key I also found is that not all scales are created the same. I found the bbi Kitchen Food Scale to be an excellent quality and easiest to use and clean. Plus it measures grams, ounces AND fluid ounces and milliliters. A lot of scales only measure grams and ounces, so this is a huge bonus.
