That's not the problem the average person is trying to solve though, they want to know how they're supposed to tell the different kinds of flour apart.



Still pretty simple:

"Just like with flour, keep them in their own containers, and keep track of which container is which. If you lose track, bake something small as a test or test the cable by plugging it in."


I much prefer the other solution we have for flour. Having them labeled. Literally just need colored bands on the cable like a resister.


They tried that for USB 3.0: blue plastic instead of black. (though that was also a bit of a disaster)
