We don't use 'cups' here either in UK.

But if you go to the USDA database here
http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/
You can see how many grams a cup of any food holds and use the weights instead. There is also see very detailed nutrition information too.

You can also download a copy of the database to use when not online
