I think you misunderstood what a tablespoon is. adjl posted... Though, realistically, if you were working with a metric recipe, you'd be much more likely to divide it by 10 or 20 instead of 16, since it's a decimal scale. Then it's easy and you use 5 ml or 20 ml spoons. Thirds would still be a pain, but then thirds are always a pain unless you're dividing tablespoons or whole cups, and a 1/3 hL measuring cup is no less plausible a concept than a 1/3c one. The point is that if you had a recipe that was 8x, or 4x, or 2x more than you wanted, it wouldn't conveniently scale down and you would have to round, and rounding leads to food not tasting right. --- ImmortalityV, "I would like to kiss Icoyar to be honest in a non gay way though" ...
