Label conflicts are relatively common and are noted. For
example, The Coca-Cola Company
reports on the food label that
there are 39 grams of carbohydrate and 140 calories in a 12-ounce can. Since there are 4 calories per carbohydrate gram, one would expect 156 calories per can. Where total calories are not given for a
product, we have calculated based on 4 calories per gram of carbohydrate, 4 calories per gram of protein, and 9 calories per gram of fat.
Small differences may be explained by rounding.
