Joule is the metric system unit to measure the energy in food, however we still see calories being used everywhere, specially advertising and fitness influencers. Let’s stop this nonsense.

Can you explain the maths on that?
I thought 1 Joule equals 1 Watt for 1 second. 8 MJ = 8000000 Ws. If you divide by 3600 (60 * 60), you get ~2222 Watt hours or 2.222 kWh.
There are 24h in a day. Divide your number by 24 and it will roughly match.
Thanks! I guess I was a bit confused there. 🙈
