We used to have standardized package sizes in the EU for things like butter, chocolate, etc. So stupid to give that up
I guarantee it’s because of neoliberals and conservatives trying to emulate The US.
Really we just need to standardize sizes for consumer goods. For example: drinks can come in 250, 500, 750, 1000, and 2000 mL sizes. Sold soap must be sold in units of 100, 500, or 1000 grams. And so on…
We all need to apologize to France for literally every mean thing we ever said about them.
This has been the law in Brazil for more than 10 years now. We have lots of problems here, but at least our consumer protection laws are top notch. And, believe or not, they’re enforced successfully.
Thanks for sharing, it’s great tk hear and I didn’t know!
I wish we had a small percent of what France does for its consumer rights in the United States.
