For some reason, I automatically use the imperial measurements when writing in English and metric measurements when writing in Dutch. I always use the Celsius scale though.

Nevertheless, I think the imperial system should be banned as (for all I know) only America still uses it while the rest of the world uses metric (the UK is already slowly converting). When cooking and backing, Americans should also get with the program and ditch those cups already and use a proper kitchen scale like the rest of the world does.

"Three cups of flour." What idiocy is that? How much is three cups of flour? It depends on the type, and on how densely you pack the cup. I've actually seen a recipe wanting a cup of apples in a cake. What? One apple in one piece? Doesn't even fit. In small pieces? Could fit, I suppose. Ground to a pulp? That way, I could actually get TWO apples into a cup.

I refuse to use American recipes.
