Calories or kilojoules? I find kj so confusing and annoying!

    I use calories. I hate that our food labels are in kj (thankfully some have the calories mentioned). Most people know more about calories and its far easier to work out. My mum prefers kj. The numbers are too high for me to remember and work out

    I use calories since most of the food I consume has calorie information that easy to use.

    Living in Los Angeles everything here is in Calories. Seems strait forward. Never used KJ.
