Typically, speaking of consumers here, when you read a nutritional label it will actually list the number of calories in kilogram calories (or kcal). In fact a calorie is actually an infinitesimal measurement typically only used by research scientists and nutritionalists.
One kilogram calorie (kcal, also known as a 'food calorie' or (capital C) Calorie) is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one litre (or one kilogram) of water by 1 degree Celsius.
What else can I help you with?
How many kilo calories make one calorie?

Can you convert 407 kilo calories to calorie?
There are 1,000 calories in a kilocalorie. The prefix kilo meaning 1,000. So, 407 kilocalories x 1000 (conversion factor from kilocalories to calories) = 407,000 calories.
What is the relationship between the calorie used by scientists and calories used by nutritionists?
I believe that the Scientist's calorie is an actual calorie; however, the dietitian's calorie is actually a Kilo-calorie. In other words, although a box of cereal may say 100 calories/serving...this is not accurate. It should read either 100 Kcal/serving, or 100,000 calories/ serving, but that would be a bit overwhelming. So, we've adopted a system of Kilo-calories that we inaccurately call 'calories'.

How many kilojules are in a calorie?
4.184 Kilojoules make up 1 calorie. If you have any food product that contains for example around 400 Kj it will then obviously be the equivalent to about 95 calories. 50 calories will be the equivalent to around 210 Kj
Are wine calories worse than food calories?
Calories are Calories. The dietary Calorie is spelled with a capital "C" indicating that it is, in fact a kilo-calorie. With food you get vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, protein and fats. With wine, you get alcohol and carbohydrates.
