    For our American friends: A gram is just a unit of measurement, like an ounce just with less freedom and fewer calories.
    You’re welcome.

      We measure lots of things in grams in the US, like weed and psychedelic mushrooms

      Please don’t insult the noble gram by comparing it the filthy ounce. It won’t help anyway. You have to use objects. Just tell them the pot weighed about 3 decks of poker cards, was about a slimjim in diameter and had a volume capacity of a medium bottle of coke.

      Looking how the things are going over there, I’d say a gram is like an ounce with a little more freedom in it
