920 kJ On A Food Label
If 920 kJ is the per-serve figure on a nutrition panel, check the serving size next to it. Here is how the energy per 100 g changes with the size of that serve.
| Serving size | kJ per 100 g | kcal per 100 g | Energy density |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25 g serve | 3,680 kJ | 880 kcal | high |
| 40 g serve | 2,300 kJ | 550 kcal | high |
| 60 g serve | 1,533 kJ | 366 kcal | medium |
| 100 g serve | 920 kJ | 220 kcal | medium |
| 150 g serve | 613 kJ | 147 kcal | medium |
| 250 g serve | 368 kJ | 88 kcal | low |
For example, if a 60 g serve contains 920 kJ, the food has about 1,533 kJ per 100 g, a medium-density food, similar to bread, lean meat, eggs and pasta dishes. The food label calculator does this for any label.
