The US dry gallon is one eighth of a US bushel and is a measure for dry goods such as grain and produce. It is rarely used today; when Americans say gallon they almost always mean the liquid gallon, which is about 14% smaller.

The US customary cup is half a US pint, or 8 US fluid ounces, and is the standard cup in American recipes. Cups differ between countries: the metric cup is 250 mL, and the cup used on US nutrition labels is rounded to 240 mL.
