In addition to John's remarks, I see the website promotes wellness. I also see they have featured chefs, yet their recipes are dumbed down to cups and spoons. Here is a perfect opportunity for contact the chefs and ask them for recipes in metric to be included, using mass instead of volume.. If you see something you like, ask them if they can forward you a metric version of the recipe?
You can point out that wellness begins with using proper measurements and cups and spoons are not proper. You might get a lot farther communicating with a person who actually uses metric internally then writing blindly and getting the company bimbo. Jerry ________________________________ From: John M.

Meat is regulated by USDA. However, on their cheese, butter, organic snacks and other products, I think they should be subject to FPLA, and are non-compliant (unless they have some small business exemption). In photos where I can read the label, they do not dual label (for example, a 12 oz. bottle of honey). Some things are metric. They sell 16.9 fl oz bottles of flavored water which are undoubtedly 500 mL in reality. They also sell a 20 g white chocolate candy bar, marked ONLY in grams. :) --- On Sun, 4/19/09, Pierre Abbat <[email protected]> wrote: From: Pierre Abbat <[email protected]> Subject: [USMA:44770] Re: online food seller To: "U.S. Metric Association" <[email protected]> Date: Sunday, April 19, 2009, 4:01 PM On Sunday 19 April 2009 13:34:11 Michael Payne wrote: > Send the address to me and I'll ask as well.

The reason I'm shopping there is that I'm trying to heal some cavities, and Rami Nagel recommends them. I asked two questions, one of which has nothing to do with metric. Pierre
