I think of weights in a similar manner, except I think of steak. An 8 ounce steak is about 250 grams. An 16 ounce steak (which is 1 pound) is about 500 grams.

With regards to volume, I am used to 750mL bottles of wine. Converting distance is still unintuitive to me. The best method I came up with is that driving 60 miles per hour is about 100 km per hour.
