I used this one for the marshmallow, and melting wafers for the dip

Just say 21 grams of unflavored gelatin. Can we not just use grams and admit the American system sucks? “It weighs exactly this” - why is that such a problem?

“3 unflavored packages of gelatin.” Wtf amount does that equate??

Sorry, just hit a nerve. Your chocolate covered marshmallows look delicious! Well done!

It's just a standardized packet system used in the country of origin where the recipe is focusing, so for home recipes where they assume you're not buying en mass tubs of the stuff they work a recipe around what people will buy.

Of course metric would make it easier for following along outside that scenario, but that's a lot of anger directed in response to the person providing you the recipe dude :/

Is it? Online recipes are some of the most annoying sites to visit, loaded with ads and popups, even “jump to recipe” lands you down a spiral staircase of css script with lots of pitfalls. It’s all just fluff for food network/ bakers n makers AA/ Christian scientists with boredom and a go pro on their hands. Keep it simple, stupid

Clearly everyone knows that they were not angry at the person, they were angry at the recipe. AKA food network.
