Hmm. I wonder the units used to quantify chemical energy are typically calories or joules. One calorie is defined as the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. When you look at food labels, the caloric content indicates the potential energy that food can provide.
It’s akin to knowing the fuel efficiency of a car, telling you how far you can travel on a certain amount of fuel. Few.
