    Americans: go pick up the closest consumer packaged good within reach. You will find it is labeled with metric.

    Yes, but that’s likely because they want to sell it in Canada without changing the packaging design, isn’t it? Even if they have to put French on the other side for Canada, it’s cheaper in terms of development to have a single English design for both the U.S. and Canada, so it will be labeled in both Imperial and metric.
