Where this number comes from

USDA FoodData Central lists 1 cup of “Nuts, coconut milk, canned (liquid expressed from grated meat and water)” at 226 g (FDC ID 170173, SR Legacy).

Everything else is worked out from that figure: spoons from 1 cup = 16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons, and ounces and pounds from their exact definitions (1 oz = 28.349523125 g, 1 lb = 453.59237 g, NIST).
