Every product that is exported to United States of Great Britain will have two: in Matric and British/American matrix.

That is because of the way matric works in those countries.

If you go to Italian delicatessen or food store in Roma, and say I want one pound of ham, watch the reaction. :}}}}}}}}

Merci
