Hey, sexy bone-marrow pelvis, shake them atomic gains!
(OK, but like, if I produced synthetic plutonium I would make the box look like a chocolate box. Those workers & engineers deserve to have a fun work environment, engage in some shenanigans, make an oopsie from time to time.)
The calorie numbers we assign to food, measure how much energy our body extracts from them when eaten.
In this context, plutonium is closer to 0
If we instead want to measure the actual total physical energy content of materia, we would turn to E=mc^2, telling us that a gram of anything has about 20 million kcal, no matter if its plutonium or diet coke. which is a slightly less useful value on food labels :D
This is actually an issue with food calories as well. Wood shavings give a high reading in a bomb calorimeter but you can’t process them into energy. Same with lots of fiber. And ethanol, in some cases.

And it goes straight to my hips. By which I mean the bone marrow in my pelvis.
These hips don’t lie : you got cancer

If you eat just one bite you’ll never have to eat again for the rest of your life!
Not dietal calories.

Equivalent-level of fun fact: 1 gram of hay contains that much calories too!
No wonder cows are so fat
