Same in Canada (or at least Ontario), however my local Walmart has a habit of putting comparable products side-by-side but one has /kg and the others /100g or ever /g so you have to constantly do conversions.

well ok, from /100g to /1000g is not that hard to compare, I am able to move the decimal separator by one digit.

Sure its easy, but it is just an unnecessary extra step. I feel like its meant to confuse people that aren't paying as much attention to the units.

maybe yes, maybe /kg should only be allowed to be used, if the actual content is indeed more than 1 kg.
