minus-squareremi_pan@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up3·15 hours agoA drinking glass in the States is 500 mL ?! That’s huge ! In my part of the globe glasses are usually more between 120 and 250 mL.
minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 hours agoYeah, 450-550ml (16-20oz) is a pretty common size for a drinking glass at home or at a restaurant. We also have “juice glasses” which are about 110-170 (4-6oz) you mentioned, but not everyone has then. My kids’ cups are about 200ml (6-8oz).
