SwitchExplanation
This page starts from weight ounces and estimates cups for polenta using the same ounce-per-cup conversion as the mirror page. That keeps the forward and reverse routes numerically aligned.
It is useful when a recipe or label gives ounces by weight but prep is measured in cups. That is especially useful for batch cooking and portion planning, where coarse grain volume and weight need to stay aligned. Polenta can vary with grain coarseness and how the particles settle in the cup, so the page keeps one explicit basis for repeatable prep.
