I believe it's based on what the pack displays, if its grams then they show price per gram, if its ml, likewise.
I suppose its still possible to game with own label goods, from what I've observed it only seems to come up in a limited range of goods, sauces and suchlike.
I havent weighed a litre of oil, but a litre of water is a kg, so water based goods should be fairly comparable ml to g, that's the basis I work on anyway.
- nesadi 7y agoA lot of stores in Germany do something else, where they'll use the price per 100g for one brand and price per 1kg for another in order to make it just slightly harder to realize how expensive something is at a glance.
- realusername 7y agoI have not seen that in France so I guess using the price per kilo or litre is mandatory.
- distances 7y agoThis is very true, common with e.g. cheese where the pricier cheeses are often per 100g. Still easy to compare but somewhat shady.
