kJ, Calories and kcal

Calories are the unit most recipes and fitness apps use. A food Calorie, written Cal here and also called kcal, is 4.184 kJ, and kilojoules (kJ) are what many food labels show. 1,200 Cal is 5,020.8 kJ, so a tracker that says 1,200 Cal and a label that says 5,020.8 kJ describe the same energy.

This is more than most single servings, so it is usually a total across several items.

For scale, half of this amount is 600 Cal, which is 2,510.4 kJ. Twice it is 2,400 Cal, which is 10,041.6 kJ.
