The American Beverage Assoication is the trade association for non-alcoholic beverages. As such, we'd like to encourage them to encourage their members to use metric only labeling on their products where possible (or at least make metric the primary measure and put US customary units in brackets).

More importantly, as they're the main interface between beverage makers and government, we'd like to encourage them to pressure the government to amend the FPLA to allow for metric only labeling on all products.

Their site also has random usage of US customary and metric and it'd be a significant improvement in understandability if sentences like the following were metric only "According to Beverage Marketing Corporation, every man, woman and child in the United States ingests 192 gallons of liquid a year. That translates to about 3.7 gallons per week or 2 liters a day."
