A food scale has been on my list of must-buy kitchen gadgets ever since I learned that weighing dry ingredients such as flour and sugar can help improve the taste and texture of baked goods. Not only is a food scale helpful for baking, but it's also essential for portion control and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I know I could definitely benefit from some portion control! So imagine my excitement when OXO gave me the opportunity to add a food scale to my kitchen and give one lucky reader the chance to win one too!
The OXO 5 Pound Food Scale (ARV $30) is a small, light weight scale that's so easy to use. The large, illuminated display is easy to read and pulls out to allow you to measure larger objects. With one touch, you can zero-out the scale or switch from pounds to kilograms. There's even an indicator on the screen that lets you know how much of the five-pound capacity you've used.
Here's a healthy tip: Keep your food scale on your kitchen counter to remind you to weigh out your portions before each meal.
