Recently got some burritos from a food bank and while looking for cooking directions I found this nutrition chart. Never seen a food product use anything other than calories for energy, thought it was interesting.

…don’t all nutritional labels do this? Is it not a legal requirement basically everywhere?

It doesn’t seem to be the case in the U.S. Basically everything I can find that has a nutritional information label exclusively lists “Calories” and I have never seen kJ here

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it’s too interesting, it doesn’t belong. If it’s not interesting, it doesn’t belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh… what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don’t spam.
