good stores show cost/ounce right there

we don't care, we don't have to


This is true but they could also "not post the correct calculation
per oz or lb. to steer you towards what they want you to buy. I
have seen that. If it really matters to you it is best to make the

That would require people to know basic math.
They don't teach that anymore. :-)
