178.6 grams ?
Exacting to the nearly Nth degree.
Here in modern countries we usually have 175 grams packets, sometimes 180 grams .... oh, when Cadbury's shrinkflated their chocolate bars they went down to 160 grams (for the same price)
But getting out the wee metal weights and balancing it all and getting 178.6 grams ?
They just did a Google conversion, but thought it best not to round up to 180, or down to 175.
If it were coffee beans it would be 613 ... and a quarter bean.
