Cost per unit is displayed on price labels in the US, at every store I can remember being to. Smaller text than the price, which makes sense.
Sometimes the units are screwed up, and it shows “$3.49, $3.49/ea” for something that should be in ounces, but that’s rare and is clearly a data problem.
- scotty79 4y agoI think price per unit should be bigger than the price.
- mwint 4y agoI could get on board with that, but it probably violates some existing price display regulations. I assume this because otherwise grocery stores would probably love to have a lower “price” as the foremost number.
- scotty79 4y agoIf the food security will drop globally even price per calorie might become interesting number.
- antifa 4y agoI regularly see fungible products right next to each other where the difference is brand and/or package size and the unit prices will be "$X/each" for one, "$Y/lb" for another, and/or "$Z/oz" for another.
