If food were to be miniaturized with a shrink-ray, would it still contain the same number of calories as it did when it was full-size?

Depends on the nature of the shrink ray. If it shrinks individual atoms, it'll make the food completely unavailable to the digestive system.

Yes, because it would still contain the same number of atoms, and each atom would have the same amount of particles. It would have the same exact mass, but would just be small. The shrink ray would only remove the space between the particles inside the atom.

It would contain exactaly the same number of calories but they would simply be many times smaller. Since calories are energy values I would guess the would be proportionally reduced. +3pts.

Drief fruit has more calories than the same fruit fresh. I think that's the exception. I don't think the size would affect the calories. Take a bagel that is 100 calories..shrink it...I think it's still gonna be a 100 calories but you might eat more than one so in the end you'd eat more calories! :)

Worst of both worlds; not filling AND high in calories.
