Confusing unit notation

Why use "kcals?" That means "thousand calories," but that's in the scientific sense. In nutrition, the "kcal" is equal to one Calorie (as we "count calories"). Since they are actually equal, "53 kcal" is the same as "53 Cal" or "Calories." The first expression may invite confusion for the average reader. (Yes, people WOULD believe there are 53,000 Calories in a Junior Pop!) The second is unambiguous. Minor edit, I'm not much of a doer, but I can tackle it if no one else does. Agree? Object? Don't care? ??? Jororo05 (talk) 03:29, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Late, but in the UK kcal is used on nutrition labels. I don't know Wikipedia's policy on this though... --Undead Shambles (talk) 19:37, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Origin?

Missing is when and where it was invented and/or named. (If it was common as a generic confection prior to this brand, that would be nice to know also.) I can't figure out the edits history, but it seems like a relevant paragraph might have been deleted prior to the first corporate acquisitioned mentioned.
