A discount supermarket in my area recently dedicated a section of shelf space to a new distributor called Poland's Best.  The importer/distributor is locacted in Stratford, Conneticut.
 
All the products I looked at were labeled as XX.XX oz (YY0 g).  In other words, all of the ounces were direct, non-rounded useless conversions of a rounded metric amount, even though the metric amount was in parentheses.  The metric sizes were in 10 g increments, examples, like 560 g or 640 g.  I don't know if the products are packaged in the plastic containers in Poland or they are sent over here in bulk and packaged in Conneticut.
 
Either way, it is an example of products that even though they show ounces first, they are not in a format an imperialist would be proud of.
