If you have a European cookbook or two, it cuts through all that metric confusion - coverting weights and measures quickly in fractions or decimals. Enter and convert between teaspoons, tablespoons, fluid ounces, pints, millileters, even dashes and pinches! Finally it's a digital timer that will keep track of elapsed time even while you perform other calculations.
