How do they calculate how many calories something has in it like for example how did they find out how many calories are in sugar or something like that?
Happyhaylee3
the way that they find calories is by setting the object a flame and however many degrees celcius it raises 1 cubic centiliter of water, is the amount of calories. for instance if we burned a marshmallow under 3 centiliters of water and it raised 600 degrees,
then u would divide by how many centiliters there were and so the calories would be 200.

Are There Calories in Wine and How High are They in a box of wine?
Wine contains calories (just a few) only if it has still some unfermented sugar in it (sweet wines for example). Don't know if a wine contains sugar? Look at the back label: if the alcohol % has numbers with a plus (i.e. : 10+2% vol or 12+1% vol etc), it means that there's still some unfermented sugar. With those information you could calculate the amount of calories in every bottle, but it's complicated, just avoid those wines. Cheers, Giovanni
