What's the dumbest thing you thought as an adult that you recently learned was wrong? - eviltoast

I just realized while cooking that a measuring-cup cup (as measured out as 250mL in a glass measuring cup) is the same amount(s) as one of the actual plastic baking measuring cups that go inside each other like Russian dolls lol

Your turn to come clean Lemmings!

**EDIT: to clarify, I mean volumetrically for measuring liquids

    I always use Never Ear Shredded Wheat to remember the directions.

    As for which way the sun sets, I remember a quite from either Shanghai Noon/Knights in which Owen Wilson’s character talks about how the sun rises in Japan however it sets in the West.
