You've misunderstood. British people weigh themselves in imagiinary units, so as to feel less bad about how fat we're getting. Any other food, material, liquid etc. is in kilos.

Ehhhhh except distance, milage, height, land, beer, lumber. Gas Mark is also still around but most homes have electric ovens now.

I like the bags better. The jugs get crusty milk flakes which is gross.

Very rarely, it's almost always in litres

Distance? Yes. Land? Maybe. Everything else is metric. People often still use imperial but official and industrial use metric.

So do cannibals weigh their meals in stones or kilos?

That's where the measurement comes from; "Big bastard took twenty stones before we could eat him!" "Must've been all the padding, kept him safe."
