2,300 kJ On A Food Label

Seeing 2,300 kJ per serve on a pack means very different things depending on how big the serve is. The table shows what the same 2,300 kJ implies per 100 g, which is the fairest way to compare products.

Serving size	kJ per 100 g	kcal per 100 g	Energy density
100 g serve	2,300 kJ	550 kcal	high
150 g serve	1,533 kJ	366 kcal	medium
250 g serve	920 kJ	220 kcal	medium

Energy per 100 g if one serve of that size contains 2,300 kJ. Smaller serves are left out because no food is that energy-dense.

Take a 100 g serve: 2,300 kJ ÷ 100 × 100 = 2,300 kJ per 100 g, which puts it in the high-density group alongside biscuits, chips, chocolate, nuts and oils. Try your own label in the food label calculator.
