When we measure calories in food we are speaking of bioavailable chemical energy. The energy listed for Uranium here is not chemical, it’s the nuclear potential energy released during nuclear fission which is completely different.
That was probably obvious but ackshyually if we include the nuclear potential energy that could be released from fusion, I would wager the water in that food has enough hydrogen to give the same amount of energy, since hydrogen carries far more nuclear potential energy.
But what if my digestive system is capable of nuclear fission?
then i hope your SO has lead-lined pyjamas
It would be a blast!
One more acktchuallay to add; the big C calories in food is 1000 little c calories, so yellow cake only has 20,000,000, take that, uh, whoever.
Some fungi found to be thriving in Chernobyl, and seemingly growing towards radiation sources, are hypothesized to be able to capture and use the radiation energy to support biological processes. If it turns out that some fungi can synthesize compounds that convert ionizing radiation into chemical bonds that can be metabolized by biological organisms, one could theoretically imagine some kind of symbiotic relationship between organisms that comes out of that.
So how many bioavailable calories did I just consume then, Dr. PotatoesFall?
visibky shakes, torn between answering the question and calling an ambulance
It does say cake and cake is delicious.
The secret to lose weight without counting calories
Enough calories for the rest of your life!
Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day.
Give a man uranium and you feed him for life…which also happens to be a day.
Weapons of bowel destruction.
Weapons of Myass destruction.
Can I get chocolate cake uranium instead?
Imagine if we could just eat and sustain ourselves with uranium.
One single GRAM has enough calories for a human to live for about 28,000 years.
Wouldn’t it be kCal for the fried food and beer?
It’s a big C not the little c
anything to avoid SI units right?
To ease calculations, energy is expressed in 1000-calorie units known as kilocalories. That is, 1 Calorie is equivalent to 1 kilocalorie; the capital C in Calories denotes kcal on food labels, calories and kilocalories are used interchangeably to mean the same thing.
Keep your dirty pascals away from me I want inches of water column.
Uraniam tastes so good 😊
