I know, I sound like an infomercial, but this scale really does rock.<\/p>\n<p>At $25.00, the EatSmart Precision Pro Kitchen Scale is a good value. It holds up to eleven pounds or five kilograms, and is accurate to +\/- 1 gram. My favorite feature is the &#8220;Tare&#8221; feature, which means a button that lets you zero out the scale after you&#8217;ve put weight on it. Say you want to weigh something like cereal or blueberries. Put a bowl on the scale, press the Tare button, then add the food. The display will show you the weight of just the food in grams.<\/p>\n<p>The scale also comes with a guidebook to calorie counting that consists of a list of common foods and their Calorie Factor, meaning how many calories are in one gram of that food. So, let&#8217;s say you weigh dry roasted almonds and get a weight of 15. The calorie factor in the guidebook is 5.97, so your portion of almonds is 15 x 5.97 = 89.55 calories.  There are also blank lines in the back of the book to put in foods you regularly eat that aren&#8217;t listed. The guidebook explains it all really well.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you want to be precise in your flour measurement for bread or want to find out how many potato chips are really in a serving, a good food scale is a must-have. My old twist-a-dial food scale is in the garage sale box and my <a title=\"EatSmart Precision Pro Kitchen Scale\" href=\"http:\/\/www.eatsmartproducts.com\/products.php\" >EatSmart Precision Pro Kitchen Scale<\/a> has taken it&#8217;s place! Thank you so much to EatSmart for sending me the scale to review. I love it!<\/p>\n<h6 class=\"zemanta-related-title\" style=\"font-size: 1em;\">Related articles by Zemanta<\/h6>\n<ul class=\"zemanta-article-ul\">\n<li class=\"zemanta-article-ul-li\"><a href=\"http:\/\/healthnews.ediets.com\/diet-weight-loss\/forgotten-calories-add-up-fast.html\">Forgotten Calories Add Up Fast<\/a> (healthnews.ediets.com)<\/li>\n<li class=\"zemanta-article-ul-li\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmediamedicine.com\/forum\/current-medical-students\/54870-calorie-calculation.html\">calorie calculation<\/a> (newmediamedicine.com)<\/li>\n<li class=\"zemanta-article-ul-li\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.marco.org\/524984926\">Calorie-counting works<\/a> (marco.org)<\/li>\n<li class=\"zemanta-article-ul-li\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayoclinic.com\/health\/portion-control\/MY01197\/rss=5\">Practice portion control for better health with diabetes<\/a> (mayoclinic.com)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Reblog this post [with Zemanta]\" href=\"http:\/\/reblog.zemanta.com\/zemified\/2b4e8821-6ff6-48cd-8253-c989270b03c8\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"border: medium none; float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/reblog_e.png?x-id=2b4e8821-6ff6-48cd-8253-c989270b03c8\" alt=\"Reblog this post [with Zemanta]\" \/><\/a><span class=\"zem-script more-related pretty-attribution\"><script src=\"http:\/\/static.zemanta.com\/readside\/loader.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever come across a recipe that had the amount of an ingredient listed in grams and wondered how to measure it?
