Well, this does look better than "half liter" since it avoids the use of
vulgar fractions (even in word format rather than numeric format). 

 

But to my mind 500 mL is still the way to go.

"HALF LITER" used to be the language on the wrapper.  This Ozarka package of
24 500 mL bottles says it differently. Taken at  Albertson's supermarket in
Midland, Texas, USA.
