    “What size is a medium?”

    They’d just grab the cup to show you. Where do you live that the workers would actually reply to you with the actual measurement?

        Also in Europe it would be totally normal to respond with measurements. 200 ml, 0.33, and half liter are the standard ones. In the UK there’s pints and half pints.

        If somebody just pointed at the container for me instead of telling me the size I would probably consider it weird. Maybe it’s normal in fast food joints.
