What's the problem with just selling 568ml bottles? Why does it have to be named somehow?
- automatic6131 3y agoMost bottles are 660ml and cans are varied, but many are 500ml. However, in pubs and restaurants, the standard glasses are 568ml and half of that, for a half-pint.
- KptMarchewa 3y agoWhy would they remove that if you removed imperial usage?
- PaulRobinson 3y agoWhat does it mean to “remove imperial usage”? Are you suggesting we should stop calling it a pint and instead demand that we order “568ml of Hobgoblin, please?” Why would we do that instead of just ask for a pint?
- rtb 3y agoUK shops do just that, for example milk in supermarkets is still sold in pints but labelled in metric due to EU laws.
- Eavolution 3y agoNot everywhere in the UK. In Northern Ireland milk is sold in 1pt, but much more commonly 1L, 2L, and 3L bottles.
