What is the proper way to measure a bowl to see what size it is/how much it holds?
I need to replace a plastic bowl that I use when taking food to family gatherings. I need to make sure that the new bowl can hold the same or a little more than the old bowl.
I filled the bowl with water to the very top and I got 12 cups of water in it. When I went to the store there were a few bowls that were labled as 12 cup. None of them looked like they could hold 12 cups of anything, they looked more like 6 cups. Maybe it's because they were all rectangular shape and the one I have is actually a bowl.
