NOT TRUE

This statement is not true: Apples are often sold in peck or half-peck bags or baskets in the United States, but otherwise the peck is rarely used.

Anyone who lives in an agricultural area or who has ever been to a farmer's market can tell you the peck is still widely used. Most commonly it is used for fruits (peaches, apples, pears, etc) but is also common for vegetables too. Just because you don't see pecks in your supermarket doesn't mean it's not a common measurement. I strongly suggest this be reworded.
