Measuring Tip
Sunflower seeds are small and pack tightly. Pour them into the measuring cup and level off without shaking, which settles the seeds and increases the weight.
Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.

Close, but not exactly. The ounces to cups conversion for sunflower seeds may vary slightly between brands depending on moisture content and how the ingredient is measured.
The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. An ounce of sunflower seeds fills a different number of cups than an ounce of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
