They said the same thing here in the UK years ago (the 90s I think) when they started forcing labels on food to have metric.
"I want a pound of sugar, not 453g!"
Turns out the world didn't actually burn down. The containers mostly stayed the same size, but I think they slowly gravitated towards logical sizes (so e.g. that 453g package became 500g or 400g at some point)
