Why do Americans measure everything in cups? - eviltoast

Used a couple of US recipes recently and most of the ingredients are in cups, or spoons, not by weight. This is a nightmare to convert. Do Americans not own scales or something? What’s the reason for measuring everything by volume?

    You put it in the cup. Which also measures it. You don’t have to press any buttons or tare anything. You just keep adding broccoli until cup is full.
