   Okay Brits, explain yourself.

   I got a British cookbook, and why the hell are there measurements in grams, milliliters, but ALSO tablespoons and teaspoons? For fucks sake. Be consistent...

   5 ml and 15 ml are right there.

     > The unit of measurement varies by region: a United States liquid tablespoon is approximately 14.8 mL, exactly 1⁄2 US fluid ounce; about 0.52 imperial fluid ounce. A British tablespoon is approximately 14.2 mL, exactly 1⁄2 imperial fluid ounce; about 0.48 US fluid ounce.[2]

     > An international metric tablespoon is exactly 15 mL, about 0.53 imperial fluid ounce or 0.51 US fluid ounce.[3] An Australian metric tablespoon is 20 mL, about 0.7 imperial fluid ounce or 0.68 US fluid ounce.
