My SIL is staying with us for a short while, while her mom is recovering from a serious condition. SIL is diabetic and special needs. We have to calculate carbs for her insulin.
Problem last night as I dug into the process of figuring out how many grams of carbs in a serving of "Green Bean Casserole". The problem is that a couple of things had a serving size of 1/2 C. Other things were by weight, and they got distributed amongst the whole batch.
For the life of me I could wrap my head around how to get 6 ounces of french fried onion into a 1/2 c serving after it was spread thoughout the whole mixture.
I'm sure it must have to do with a percentage or something, but last night I finally had to look it up online. I feel like I should remember how to this fairly simple math problem. I need to understand this, because my wife asked me how I'm going to figure this out and my only response was, "It's pretty simple math!"
It's pretty simple, right?
