When it was just pounds I would have advocated showing kg too considering that internatoinally it was a well known unit.

Yeah!  Right!  We believe you!  We really do!


Arguably lb's are still the unit of measure predominantly used / spoken in supermarkets today although there is this sort of "drive" to make it so that people change the way they ask for things.

The Continentals still used the word pound for generations after metrication even if the scales and pricing didn't show it. They just excepted and got use to it being 500 g. You can do the same.


I just think that both "systems" should be used and let the consumer decide. Use education if you want - and let the preference for whatever system flow through.

Yes! Yes! Add as much clutter to the price displays as possible. And add cost tothe product to pay for the time and materials to dual price. Just to preserve something not needed. Very efficient way to do business.




To me it's not a case of enforcing the display of something - its fighting the the illegalization of the display of something.

It isn't illegal to look at the price per 100 g and calculate in your mind the price per 500 g to approimate your fanaticism with old units.
