About these units
Fluid Ounce (US) (fl oz (US))
A US fluid ounce is approximately 29.5735 milliliters. It is not a unit of weight, despite sometimes being confused with the avoirdupois ounce. In beverage serving sizes, cooking, and pharmaceuticals, the fluid ounce provides a flexible unit for small to medium volumes. It serves as the basis for bartending measurements, packaging labels, and nutritional information. Its precise value derives from the US gallon, making the fluid ounce a key link in the US customary volume system.
Teaspoon (Metric) (tsp (m))
The metric teaspoon is universally fixed at 5 mL, offering complete consistency across countries that use metric culinary measurements. This simplicity is a major advantage over historical teaspoon variations. In metric recipe writing—especially in Australia, New Zealand, and parts of Europe—teaspoons serve as standardized micro-measures that are easy to convert and scale. Its widespread adoption demonstrates the advantages of aligning traditional kitchen practices with the predictable structure of the metric system.
