@saramg I had the same problem with drinks when visiting Germany. I saw a label in “dl” and assumed it was Deutche Liters.

@josh I assure you, were the Deutche Liter a unit, it would be FAR more than a mere 100ml.

@saramg @josh Yeah, it would be 1000ml, or... 10cm³.

@derickr @josh That is the most German response I could possibly imagine.

@saramg @josh I'll see that as a compliment for my teutonic tendencies.

@derickr "Teutonic Tendencies" sounds like the name of a band that might be cool.

@josh @saramg With this we try to hide that the correction factor differs by region. In Bavaria, it is either one liter or half a liter, set by state government. In Cologne it is 0.2 liter, everywhere else usually 0.33 or 0.4 liter depending on local regulations, but can vary. (We tried to unify that once for all. As we still depend on fax machines, nobody was yet able to gather all authorities for a common meeting to do so.)
