The 4·4·9 shorthand adds to 413 kcal and USDA publishes 413 kcal. The arithmetic closes, so the axis above is simply that figure divided by the shares.

How this is worked out

  1. USDA measures every nutrient per 100 g of edible portion. That row is published here unchanged — nothing is rounded up, smoothed or "adjusted".
  2. The energy figure is USDA's own, derived with food-specific factors. This site never computes the calorie count it publishes.
  3. The Atwater shorthand 4 · 4 · 9 is applied to the protein, carbohydrate and fat grams only to split that energy into shares — and where the shorthand disagrees with the published figure, the gap is printed rather than hidden.
  4. A serving is a straight proportional conversion of the per-100 g row, using USDA's own household measures for the grams.
  5. The walking figure uses MET 4.0 at 70 kg, the same equation the sister site publishes.
per serving   = per 100 g × serving grams ÷ 100
energy shares = 4·P + 4·C + 9·F      (P, C, F in grams)
walk minutes  = kcal ÷ (4.0 × 3.5 × 70 ÷ 200)

How milk and cereal bar compares

Among the 44 snacks items on this site, milk and cereal bar ranks 28 of 44 by calorie density, against a category average of 444 kcal per 100 g — so it is about 7% less calorie-dense than typical for its group.

It carries 1.6 g of protein per 100 calories, so it is not a meaningful protein source.

To burn off one bar (103 kcal), a 70 kg adult would walk for roughly 21 minutes — see the walking calculation on our sister site, or pick a different activity. Treat that as a sense of scale rather than a rule: eating and moving are not a simple ledger.

Questions this entry settles

How many calories are in milk and cereal bar?

Milk and cereal bar contains 413 calories per 100 g, which works out to about 103 calories per bar. It also provides 6.5 g of protein, 72.1 g of carbohydrate and 11.0 g of fat per 100 g.

What is the macro breakdown of milk and cereal bar?

By calories, milk and cereal bar is roughly 70% carbohydrate, 6% protein and 24% fat. That makes it a predominantly carbohydrate-based food.

How long does it take to burn off a bar?

About 21 minutes of ordinary walking for a 70 kg adult (MET 4.0). That is a rough guide for scale, not a prescription — appetite and activity interact in ways a simple subtraction does not capture.

Is this figure exact for the milk and cereal bar I bought?

No. These are USDA reference values, averaged across samples. Real foods vary with variety, ripeness, growing conditions, cut, brand and how they were cooked — 10–20% either way is normal. Use them for planning, not precision.
