Right, but we're talking about a weight to volume conversion, which takes density into consideration. We've seen plenty of conversion charts on this list to convert grams to ounces and the like. But converting into volume, like cups from grams, needs to take density into consideration or to use another method to come to an answer, like taking total servings and then calculating volume per serving instead of mass.
