Examining the question for some aspects of gold and meat: 1. A solid block of one Avoirdupois pound of each substance would not be the same size in area or volume. 2. They would be the same weight if both were weighed in Avoirdupois ounces or pounds. However gold is customarily weighed in Troy ounces/pounds which are slightly heavier than the equivalent Avoirdupois weight. 3. Marx in "Capital" would argue that one pound of gold could equal one pound of meat if the market accepts them as having similar value.

How much one ounce gold weighs in terms of grams?

1/12. Actually, precious metals (gold, silver, platimun, & palladium) are measured in troy weight. One troy ounce is about 1.097 (avoirdupois - what we normally use in the U.S.) ounces, and one troy pound is 12 troy ounces. Therefore, one pound of gold (troy) is equal to about .824 pounds (avoirdupois). One pound of gold weighs only .824 times as much as a pound of feathers....or lead.
