Centimeters, Kilograms, Meters and Celsius...what do these mean? Feel like we're in another world? United States may be in Farenheit, Miles, Pounds and Yards...but visiting another foreign country is not always the same as back home.
Double click, World Wide Metric Conversion Calculator so you can begin to understand when you see that 70 degrees Farenheit means 21 degrees Celsius and 1 kilogram equals approximately 2.2 pounds (Therefore, 1/4th pound equals 1/10th of a kilogram...a handy hint for your cheese and ham purchases at the Boqueria and Campo de Fiori).
Not good with numbers like me? Be prepared and jot it down ahead of time. You don't want to make the mistake of ordering 22 pounds of Iberico Ham, do you?
