Calories count in container

[Morphe]

Hello folks, I would like to show you some idea I imagined one minute ago. I'm currently living in Milton and have about 16 kgs of food, and would like to know how much calories it is without calculating. And I think it would be cool if we would have an option in container menu called "Food container". It would add together every calorie amount and will give me a simply text-box saying all these things. It will also count how much liters of water we have.

Short example:

Soda = 250 cal + 0.20 l

beef jerky = 350 cal + (-0.10 l)

250 x + 0.20 y + 350 x - 0.10 y ) = 600 x + 0.10 y

It would affect every food and drink item.

 

I made quick example:

While I am not overly interested in having a container that counts the calories that I can do in my head already, I am interested in being able to craft new containers.  Specifically a nice outdoor food container, better inside storage, or maybe just be able to move the storage containers.

If they ever add some sort of fat storage to the survivor this would make sense, because you would actually be worried about how many calories you take in.  As it is now my survivor rarely pays attention to calories, because she doesn't get fat nor is she on a diet.  Could be something cool to have if they EVER make some sort of MOD CREATION KIT.  You could create it just to satisfy your own need to know exactly how many calories of food you are currently hoarding.

At the moment I have more than 300kg of food and any talk of food containers makes me nervous.

Some day....  Some day....  There will be critters that steal that food you have been so nicely leaving out to rot.

I've been hoping for a long time. Still no joy.

I could go for a total calorie count.  It would be handy.
