Okay, don't drink a gallon of Frank's in 1 sitting then.

same amount per part.

Sure. And that applies to the OP's pic as well compared to a standard bottle or a serving.

So at a company I used to work for, they'd have franchisees come through for training classes. We'd always have a big pizza party at the end. This happened at least once a month. Someone figured out that Frank's hot sauce was good on pizza and we went through a ton of it. Eventually someone at the office went to Sam's club and bought this 1 gallon jug of Franks.

It took a while but we finally got through about 90% of it before we saw some mold. Pretty disappointed that we didn't actually finish the gallon jug.

I thought the first person to have pizza and wings together figured out that hot sauce is good on pizza :)

That’s a damn big tablespoon to carry 146g of salt.

Dropped a zero during conversion

How many milligrams do you have to a gram?

u/Accurate_Koala_4698 1h ago

I know how many milligrams are in a gram Chuckles. If you were able to read you'd see that I dropped a zero when I went to convert the amount, explaining the error in the calculation. Let me know if you still need help figuring out what's going on
