I found this out by clicking on this link, “A list of nations who have not adopted the metric system” and the page just loaded.

… BBC, Technorati, Blogspot (and most other big blog companies), Google News, Google Video, sometimes Google Images, Flickr, Wikipedia…)

Food expenditure for one week: 1,233.76 Yuan or $155.06
Favorite foods: fried shredded pork with sweet and sour sauce
