Soda bottles in the us shows both ounces and milititers.
Large bottles are sold as "2 liter soda"...that's it.
Smaller bottles are in ounces (with the metric label just a requirement I guess - no one I know here talks about buying a 500ml soda)
Everything else is ounces or gallons, I'm sure someone will 'umm actually' me...but generally nothing else is metric; like milk and juice.

> Large bottles are sold as “2 liter soda”…that’s it. I'm from Finland. It never stops being weird when Americans talk about 2 liter sodas. First, it being in liters, and second, 2 liter sodas are huuuuge. (Large bottles are usually 1.5 liters here.)

America: fuck metric, unless you're talking soda or bullets
