How much energy is in a kiss?

So how much energy is in a kiss? I guess it depends upon the kiss. Is it a kiss by Helen of Troy? Or a Hershey's kiss? Well Helen's days of kissing are long gone, but scientists have calculated the energy in a Hershey's kiss (and any other food) and you would be amazed. They use something called a bomb calorimeter which is designed to hold small food explosions and then measure the heat produced by the explosion.

A Hershey's kiss has 26 calories. Now that's not much, but if you look at calories from a scientific viewpoint, and the energy they measure, then that tiny little kiss can provide enough energy to lift a 8,600 lb. SUV over six feet into the air. There's a heck of a lot more energy in our food than you think. If you want to learn more about this check out the article at www.NPR.org.
