Frequently asked questions
How many oz is 100 grams of Sour cream?
100 grams of Sour cream is 3.53 oz. Grams and ounces are both weights, so this one does not depend on the ingredient at all — one ounce is 28.3495 grams for Sour cream as for everything else. The ingredient starts to matter the moment one side is a volume: a cup of Sour cream weighs 230 g.
How many grams is 4 oz of Sour cream?
4 oz of Sour cream is 113.4 grams. It is the same conversion read backwards, so this page and its reverse always agree.
Is that ounces by weight, or fluid ounces?
By weight. dishscale's ounce is the international avoirdupois ounce, 28.3495 g, so one cup of Sour cream is 8.11 oz. A US fluid ounce is a volume and there are eight of them to the cup, so that same cup is 8 fl oz at the same time. The two readings coincide only for an ingredient that happens to weigh eight ounces to the cup.

One US cup of Sour cream is 230 g. The dataset records that as: “USDA FoodData Central”. That is the USDA FoodData Central. Every ingredient on the site carries the reference its weight came from, so any number here can be checked — and corrected if the source disagrees.
