        Except that for some products they show the unit prices differently for some maddening reason. Like $.04/ounce right next to a competing product that has the label $.40/biscuit or something similar. Like they are trying to make it more difficult for the shopper to compare so they throw up their hands and buy whatever they are used to. I see this frequently.

          Thankfully, in France that’s not a thing I ever came across. It’s almost always SI units when applicable or occasionally, it’s missing, especially when there’s a sale (supposedly) with a custom tag to attract attention.
