kJ (kilojoules) is the Australian measure of how much energy people get from consuming a food or drink. Energy in food and drinks is measured by the number of kJ (kilojoules) it provides. kJ are similar to Calories: 1  1 kJ = 0.2 Calories (Cals)  1 Calorie = 4.2 kJs.
It was named 8700 to highlight the average number of kilojoules an adult requires every day to stay in energy balance. I have to start by stating that I donât advise counting the kilojoules (kJ) in every single food and drink that you consume, but it is a good idea to have what I call kJ awareness. The campaign has two key goals. Firstly, to teach people what kJ are and secondly, to be aware of how many kJ you should be consuming a day to help you make better choices when eating out. In addition to this, the law now requires that all food outlets with 20 stores or more must display the kJ on their menu board.
