If the label was made for US sale, the law here would require equal type (both net contents statements are required and equally important, hence equal size, under our law. Either may be first, and either may be "more sensible."). If it wasn't not labeled for US sale, I don't know why they would bother with Customary.

I believe also (though not entirely sure) that the customary units were printed in a smaller font. As to does it matter, well, in the grand scheme of things, it may not be the most important thing in the world. However, as almost 100% of pre-packaged items over here all all in metric measurements, so it seems to be a backward step, that's all. I would like to do a bit of research to find out if this packaging from the US is strictly legal as well. >
