Can Sizes

[Kathy]

I have a lot of recipes that say a # XX can and I have no idea how to translate that into cups if I'm using a home canned product. Well Ladies and Gentlemen: here's the list for those odd recipes that use can sizes instead of cups or spoons.

8 ounces= 8 ounces or 1 cup
Picnic =10-1/2 to 12 ounces or 1-1/4 cups
12 ounces vacuum =12 ounces or 1-1/2 cups
#1 = 11 ounces or 1-1/3 cup
#1 tall = 16 ounces or 2 cups
#1 square = 16 ounces or 2 cups
#2 = 1 pound 4 ounces or 1 pint 2 fluid ounces or 2-1/2 cups
#2-1/2 = 1 pound 13 ounces or3-1/2 cups
#2-1/2 square = 31 ounces or scant 4 cups

This is interesting. I put something like this in the cookbook I did. I will look for that and add it here.
