A '''calorie''' is a unit of measure of [[energy]]. One calorie is equal to the amount of energy necessary to warm one [[gram]] of [[water]] by one degree [[Celsius]] at [[sea]] level. The "Calorie" on a [[nutrition]] label is actually different from the "calorie" or unit of measure for energy. The upper case "Calorie" is actually a kilocalorie, or 1,000 calories. | A '''calorie''' is a unit of measure of [[energy]].
