Yes, one of the worst of the worst offenders used to be the German Ragold/Kanold company a number of years ago. They revelled in using ifp trash on what they sold in metric countries, just like these Danish fools, Ripensa cookies still do. Disgusting! One of R/K products had its contents given THREE times in oz. on the packet and no metric in sight. I reported them to the W&M office in the Netherlands. I do not know whether I was in the end responsible, but later I saw their products marked in metric only!

Take a look! Even though the cooking instructions mix quarts with grams, I think this is pretty good. John
