What is a calorie?
answer:A calorie is a unit of measure used to describe the energy in food. It is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1kg of water 1 degree C…elsius at 1 atmosphere pressure, or 4.184 Joules. Another Answer A calorie is an obsolescent unit of measurement (cgsA system) used to measure energy; it is not simply used to measure the energy available in food, as implied by the original answer. It was defined as the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius at standard atmospheric pressure. The original answer is not describing a calorie, but a kilocalorie which is 1000 calories. (MORE)

How are calories different from calories from fat?
They aren't different. A calorie is a calorie, whether it's from fat, protein or carbohydrates. What calories from fat is trying to tell you is how much fat is in the food a…nd how if that fat wasn't there, the amount of calories that would no longer be there. Hence, one gram of protein or carbohydrate is equivalent to 4 calories. However, one gram of fat is equivalent to 9 calories. Therefore, if a rasher of bacon contained 80 calories and had 45 calories from fat, you would know that trimming off the 5g of fat (45/9), would result in the rasher of bacon only containing 35 calories (80-45).

How many Calories is 268.5 calories?
"Calories are calories. The answer is still 268.5." Not necessarily. TECHNICALLY Calories with a capital "C" is, as I'm pretty sure I remember from science cla…ss...equivalent to 1,000 calories with a lower case "c". BUT on things such as the Nutritional Facts on food items, you should treat it all the same. Perhaps the idiots who print those nutritional facts don't know the difference between Calories and calories?? There is no telling. ;) So TECHNICALLY the answer to your question is 268,500 calories. BUT if you are asking about something related to foods...then yes, the answer is still 268.5. Comment The original answer is correct. Capitalising the word 'calorie' doesn't make it 1000 calories -that would be a kilocalorie. (MORE)
