For instance: if a bar of chocolate says "Energy: 850" does this mean it has 850 calories per the USA way of listing things? it was such a tiny bar too :) thanks for the help.

I'm pretty sure that the last chocolate bar I looked at had the values and units in both ways. Fri Jan 25 00:47:08 -0800 2008 3328582 24646 ali patts 2 3335491 thanks for the reply.
