Why does banana (mashed) weigh what it weighs?

Produce densities depend on how the ingredient is prepared — whole, diced, minced, or pureed. A cup of whole garlic cloves weighs very differently from a cup of minced garlic. Recipes that specify "1 cup diced onion" assume a particular prep; weighing eliminates the guesswork and accounts for natural variation in produce size.

For banana (mashed) specifically, 1 cup weighs 225g. That is the figure to plug into recipes calling for cup measurements when you want gram precision. ChefVault stores this density (and 118 others) so you never have to look it up twice.

Recipes that originated outside the United States almost always specify weight in grams. Translating these to US cup measurements introduces error in every step. The ChefVault app handles the math automatically — paste a recipe, hit convert, get a clean weight-based version.
