    This is a solved problem, in other areas of the world.

    I would avoid 250g, that just means you have to multiply and divide by 4, which is more of a pain than multiples of 10.

    In Australia, all food and grocery products (other than fresh produce by unit, like 1 avocado), must be labelled by weight, volume, or other suitable metric (number of toilet paper sheets, for example) by a suitable multiple of 10.

    Spices, x$/10g, vegetables x$/kg, other stuff per 100/g. Whatever results in a reasonable $ number.

    Even if it’s different it’s hilariously easy to compare.

    This can of tomatoes $0.70/100g, is cheaper than $8/kg fresh tomatoes, easy peasy because you just move the decimal.

    It really is nice, sorry to rub salt in the wound 😅
