"what is a calorie?"

A calorie is a measure of energy, the capacity to do work. Science defines a calorie as the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by one degree Celsius.

In the laboratory, the calories in food are determined by measuring the amount in 1000 calorie units called kilo calories.

But in everyday language, this term has been shortened to just calorie when the amount of energy in food is described. Thus, a 165 calorie bagel is really 165 kilo calories.

Most calorie charts that you find give you at least this amount of information on almost every food you can imagine.
