Everything is shipped by ocean freight so what ever is cheapest via ocean freight is the way to go. They don't charge by weight, they charge by volume. With that in mind, it should cost more to ship a large yet light bag of potato chips than a small but heavy pint of honey.
When shipping by ocean freight there is also a "classification" of freight. Things like manhole covers get charged a different rate than something like surgical equipment since one is a lot less breakable than the other.
