May I make a cheeky suggestion - look at Aussie and South African cookery
books.  Also visit http://www.cutecook.co.uk/ for metric units in British
cookery.  (Cutecook is publicity officer for the UKMA).

Certainly there is a large storehouse of US recipes that would need to be
converted if the US ever fully metricated (or a metric cook cooked them).  I
don't know whether we would convert to mass-based cooking or stay
volumetric.  Certainly a large table of foood densities is necessary to
convert from volumetic to mass-based cooking.  Hopefully you do it once and
write it down.
