"Grammes" are part of the metric system, which is very rarely used in the United States. In the dialogue, the shop assistant does not understand what Jean means when he asks for "500 grammes" of olives.
"Pounds" is a correct answer here. A "pound" is approximately 454g. This is an example of the imperial system of measurements, which is used in the USA. Some people in Britain still use this system too. Example: "My daughter weighed six pounds (6 lb) when she was born".
"Ounces" is a unit of measurement often used in the USA, and occasionally in Britain. An ounce is lighter than a pound, weighing just 28g. There are 16 ounces in a pound. Example: "This cake requires eight ounces (8oz) of sugar".
