ABSTRACT:
A measuring device for allowing a user to rapidly determine that an article such as a tortilla is properly sized and shaped. The measuring device consists of a transparent disc that is supported by a handle. The transparent disc includes a minimum size line and a maximum size line such that the user may place the transparent disc over the tortilla and then rapidly verify whether or not the edge of the tortilla falls between the minimum and maximum lines. The device may further include an optimum size line. The central portion of the disc is preferably transparent so that the user can inspect the surface of the tortilla. However, the central portion of the disc may also be opaque so that the user may focus his attention on whether or not the edge of the tortilla lies between the minimum and maximum lines.
