about a cubic centimeter – maybe a little bigger
I thought a gram was about the weight of 2 paper clips. That's what they told me in Jr Hi some 35 years ago.
Think about it this way: a gram of water is a cubic cm. Meat is probably about the same density (muscle denser, fat less dense, so it depends on how fatty the meat).
Well if i had a ruler than how long or how thick,any type of example
Sounds like one gram of meat looks about like the texture of the smell of taste.
@afghanmoose, what, exactly, are you measuring again??
one cube of beef/chicken.if you had kabobs then imagine one piece.
@afghanmoose ; I think that's more than a gram.
Here it says that 1 oz of meat has aprox 7 grams of protien. and here is an ounce to gram converter it you want to know the specific weight of the meat.
3 oz. beef (recommended portion) should be about the size of a deck of cards.
One cc water is one gram. You know how big a cc is. If meat is heavier than water a gram of meat will be smaller than a gram (cc) of water.
100 grams = 3.5 ounces, which would be about 1 serving of protein. 112 grams would be the meat in a 1/4 lb. hamburger.
Using information provided by Alfreda, one gram of meat is .0035 ounces. Yes?
So correct me if im wrong but one gram of protein is how many grams of a meat cube
Judi said 1 oz of meat has aprox 7 grams of protein.
Alfreda said 100 grams = 3.5 ounces.
Assuming that is correct…
1 oz meat = 7g protein , then 3.5 oz meat = 24.5g protein
3.5oz of meat = 100g of meat
100g of meat = 24.5g protein
1g of meat = .00245g protein
Or a simpler way is one cube of chicken kabob would b how much protein
Depends on how many grams your cube is..
1.5 by 1.5 inches,1.5 tall and wife
That tells me nothing about how much it weighs.
A shoebox full of feathers and a shoebox full of rocks have the same dimensions and completely different weights.
True,.071 of a lb
Thanks allie by the way,your a big help,if u chrck out my restaurant website maybe u might get a better understanding, www.silkroadrestaurant.org
That sounds like about 35–40 grams per cube.
1lb = about 453.6g
.071lb = about 32.3g
@afghanmoose, your menu sounds wonderful!!!!
Thanks alfreda,my family and i try our best,its all healthy food,organic,ethnic.@allieso the 32.3 g is the amount of protein in that cube?
No, the 32.3g is how many grams of meat are in that cube..
100g of meat = 24.5g protein
32.3g of meat = ?g protein
From above: 1g of meat = .00245g protein
(32.3g of meat)(.00245g of protein) = about .079g protein
There is about .079 grams of protein in your 32.3 grams of meat cube.
Here's a very good table from Ask the Meatman. Scroll to middle.
x axis = Calories, calories from fat, total fat in grams, cholesterol in mg, sodium, protein, and iron. Y axis = different cuts of beef.
As @kfingerman pointed out, a gram of meat (assuming meat is near the density of water, or slightly less. Does it float?) is one cubic centimeter. Which means the size of the cube would be 1 cm on edge, or about the width of an average (appropriately enough) finger.
I imagine it looks just like meat.
I don't think we have metric cows anyway.
Erm… I don't know… I suppose it looks like a gram of meat?
Allie- you have added two extra decimal places. It should be 7.9g. Look at it again. Roughly 25% in both examples.
@Orangeskyblue So you're right. :)
