But do you really weigh cauliflower cabbage or broccoli before buying?

As I said before if I've been asked to get X grams of something I make
damn sure I get at least X grams. Life would not be worth living if I
didn't...

SWMBO instructs you get so many grams of cauliflower? Cabbage?
She's got your measure. ;-)

I try to eschew buying things in "grammes", but it's fairly
unavoidable for things like medicines, sadly.

Glad you had a "fairly" in there.

One medicine taken in this house is produced and sold in grains and
fractions thereof.
