I like how 1ml of water weighs about 1g

1 mL of pure water weighs exactly 1 g at 20 ยฐC and 1 atm pressure :) It's a defined standard, useful for calibrating other things.

2000mL of water weighs 2kgs and 355mL weighs about 1/3kg.

To get my mind away from stupid imperial measures of weight, I think of bottles and cans of cola.

(Above is very approximate as sugar, packaging etc have weight. And conventional package size can vary by region.)

A liter of water's a pint and three quarters
