Don's list of consumer products on the USMA web site lists numerous
manufacturers of metric aseptic juice boxes. I noticed yesterday that
Wallmart's house brand (Great Value) is also metric (250 mL). It uses
metric symbols properly, too.
Now if we can only get the dairy industry to pay attention, we will have
essentially all beverages on the way to metrication. Of course, unlike
other beverage products, dairy is highly regulated by the USDA, which does
not help matters.
