Weight conversion chart
You are probably used to food weights as
being in pounds and ounces that are
fractions of a pound (for example, 4 ounces
equals
1
4 pound). However, in order to enter
food weight in DEFROST, you must specify
pounds and tenths of a pound.
If the weight on the food package is in
fractions of a pound, you can use the
following chart to convert the weight to
decimals.
