      They're both 16oz. It's the same price here. Store brand 1lb block is the same as store brand 1lb bag

        16oz

        Ounces are a volumetric measurement. Grated cheese is a large percent air.

            Damned American Imperial system. I will never understand you.

              What's hard to understand? It's 1/16 lb, except when it's fluid, then it's 1/10 of a cup, which is 1/2 of a pint, which is 1/2 of a quart, which is 1/4 of a gallon. There's a special measure that's half way between quart and gallon called handle, but it's only used for liquor.

                Excellent, of course. I was also taught "A pint's a pound the whole world around", which it is except when in some places it isn't.

                  That one's on :ukkk:.

                  Also different density of liquids. Using the same word for both a volume and mass is really dumb if it only converts for one thing.
