Pound plus my ass

I buy Trader Joe's brand of bittersweet chocolate which I use for baking. It comes in a package called "Pound Plus". Instead of 16oz it is like 17.6oz or something like that. Anyway, it is divided into 40 squares, which makes each square equal to 0.44 oz. What the hell? I don't know of any recipes which call for 0.44 oz or any multiple thereof of chocolate.

I guess the obvious solution here is to buy another brand.

I am baking today. That is why this came up. I am baking a bittersweet chocolate tart for my home group. And I am not even going to be there. Now, if that is not Christian love, I don't know what is.
