Answer is: a fruit and oatmeal bar contains 142000 calories.

A nutritional calorie, or kilocalorie, is equal to 1000 calories.

E = 142 kcal · 1000 cal/kcal.

E = 142 000 cal.

Calorie (cal), or small calorie, is the amount of energy needed to heat one gram of water by one degree Celsius.

One small calorie is approximately 4.2 joules.

A calorie is a unit of energy.
