  Because quarter pounder just sounds better than eighth kilogrammer

    Throwback to when they tried introducing the third pounder and y’all complained because you thought it was smaller.

      Or maybe shame on Big Burger for being too scared to introduce a half pounder.

    You know what I like eighth kilogrammer, a kg especially of meat is heavy as hell

  It’s the M/D/Y that sneaks up on me as someone from the rest of the world.

  Whenever you’re in the first 12 days of the month, you just don’t know :/

  At least with feet and inches I’m quickly prompted to fix it.

  Although sometimes, in all the developers wisdom that the only place in the world is the USA, you can’t change it.
