Meat and vegetables are measured in grams and kilograms. Milk and other liquid foods are measured in liters or milliliters. These units only measure quantity; they do not measure the value of the food to the body. The unit which measures the quality or value of food is the calorie which is the amount of heat given off by food when it burns. This measurement tells how much energy a certain food has when it is completely used by the body.
