The thing I find hilarious about this is alcohol in the US is often measured in ml, and usually sold at 750 or 1500ml as opposed to quarts

Soda is in ounces until it reaches a liter. Alcohol is ml until you get to 40 ounces. Milk is always pints, half gallons, and gallons. Why?

The real question is why US have fake pints?
