And our largest bottles of soda.
And alcohol!
And my axe!
And my Glock!
Glock is Austrian. They just love the US market.
I think most gun makers like the American market
And my crippling medical debt.
Really? And here I thought it was still in those really confusing Florida ounces. Even up here in Canada, where we do have millilitres marked on our cans, I still see “Fl oz” on many products.
When I buy a handle, I don't know how many ounces are in it, just that there's 1.75L in it.

That’s done intentionally to obfuscate the quantity, since most Americans can more easily estimate a half-gallon. It’s to encourage consumption.
Literally all of your food and drinks in America are sold by the metric unit. That's why it is on the packaging. Your "fifth" of vodka is actually 750ml and is not 1/5 of a gallon.
