Sixteen of these to a pound (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ounces

(Other definitions for ounces that I've seen before include "less than a pound?" , "Light weights in UNESCO" , "There are16 to the pound" , "Twelfths of a pound" , "They're equal to about 28 grams" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
