kilojoules
Metric energy measure
Kilojoules are units of energy equal to one thousand joules, commonly used to measure the energy content of food, particularly in Australia and other countries using metric nutrition labeling.
Where Americans see calories on a food package, Australians see kilojoules: This muffin has 1,200 kilojoules.
One dietary calorie equals about 4.2 kilojoules.
