I remember that "Pfund" (0,5 kg) and Zentner (50 kg) were still used frequently, up to the 80s or 90s, but then some legal proceeding seems to have forbidden that usage? However, some people still order a "Zweipfünder" for a large bread in the bakery (1 kg bread loaf). Should this be mentionned in the Germany section? -- Traut (talk) 09:54, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
