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?
