Does the unit have the ability to subtract the weight of the container from the food being weighed?

I don't believe so - I simply weigh the plate or bowl and then do the math. Not a big problem - love this scale!
2004691
Yes. Put the empty container or the scale, zero out the weight, then add what you are going to weigh.
2004692
Sure does! I do my meal prep and able to put my container directly on the scale, tare it, and add in my portions.No complaints at all.

Yes, If you place your container on the scale and tap the power button it will Tare to 0. That is also listed as a feature in the product description (#3)

Yes. There is an unassuming button on underneath the display for units. Press the button to set the unit of measurement.

Sure. You don't need to mess with the nutritional functions if you just want to simply weigh something. The scale also provides a 'toggle' to choose between ounces/pounds and grams.

Yes, it does. This function is called "Tare". To use it, you press the T button (the right button).The weighing platform size is 2 1/8" x 2 3/4". The clear cover can be used as a "bowl". It is about 2 1/8" x 4 1/2".Edit: Added scale measurements.

I'm sorry - I do not use it for weighing things that accurately. I believe it does, though, from what other people said.

There is not a button for this function. If you place a bowl or item on the scale after its been turned on all you have to do is push the on button again and it will reset to 0 and not count the weight of bowl or item and then you can add food you to want to weigh.

The weight number doesn't lock; you can add & subtract food items and the total will adjust. Be aware that the weight displays in kg you'll have to convert to lbs. if that's what you 're looking for. Hope that helps.

There is a simple slide switch on the top underside of the scale that changes the settings from kgs to lbs & vice versa. Hopes this info answers your question.

No, it doesn't. In the example given, you'd have to weigh the bag and then reweigh and subtract as you pour from bag to boiling water

Yes it does. I just put a can with a spoon in it on the scale, zeroed it out, and then removed the spoon. The scale showed the weight of the spoon in a negative number with a minus sign. What a great idea, I will surely use this technique!

Not sure I understand your question but if you put the bowl on the scale you can zero it out then add food to get an accurate measurement. Hope this helps

Haven't tried that, but I would guess it doesn't. The Reading is sensitive to any changes as if you were adding or removing ingredients. But if you use the TARE button, when you remove the box you'll have a negative Reading- that's the box's weight

No it doesn't, but it has a tare weight feature where you can place an empty container on the scale and it resets to 0.0. Then as you add ingredients to the container, the scale only reads the weight of the ingredients.

If the food item doesn't weigh more than a lb. it'll display ounces only. It'll display lbs AND ounces if the food item is more than 1 lb.

Yes, if you tare the weight with something on the scale and then take it off, it will tell you the negative weight. (Negative weight meaning what the object on the scale weighted, before taring the scale back to 0.)

It does, in that if you place a container on it and press to zero the scale, then put in the container what you are weighing,and press the activating button again you will get the weight of what you added.

I don't think so. I noticed when I used this regularly without the bowl that if I put a box on it and could not see the weight, I had to somehow sneak or move quickly the box to see the weight as it disappears quickly.
