no. 1/4 lb of meat is 1/4 lb of meat. no cup equivalent can be made. And 1/2 cup is only equal to 4 LIQUID ounces, not weight. [ Reply | More ]

I think the 4oz is fluid oz. I'm guessing 1/2 cup of meat would weigh more than 8oz. [ Reply | More ]

If it's for a dog then I'm pretty sure you can guestemate. a 1/4 lb of meat is a peice of steak about the size of a pack of playing cards. [ Reply | More ]

then don't worry about exact measurements. the dog will not care if you are a few ounces off one way or the other. [ Reply | More ]

an ounce is both a volume and a weight measure. They are not the same thing. [ Reply | More ]
