Stan: This is not a list, but a reference database of thousands of foods. For every food, detailed nutritional info is listed, including energy in both calories and joules.

It was not the conversion factor.

Would you please send that list to me so I may recommend its use? Regards, Stan Doore How could the list be long? There is only one energy unit in SI the joule (J). Of course multiples like kilojoules (kJ) etc. may be used, but that till leaves a pretty short list.
