I was just having a cold Mullerice for my breakfast this morning and wondered if having it cold would burn more calories as my body would need to heat it to body temperature to digest it. Can anyone confirm this?
And if that is true, is it possible to loose more weight if you are on a "cold food" diet?

Assuming that Muller rice is mostly water and that being in your fridge your body had to heat it up by about 30 degrees.

E=mcT where T is the temperature difference, c the specific heat capacity of water (4200J/KgK) and m the mass of the food 0.2Kg (from what I see)

that is .2x4200x30 25KJ or about 6 Kcalories

There are about 224K calories in the dessert

Thanks Jake!
So is it worth going on a cold food diet?
From all I have heard, most people have commented that the temperature of the food represents a trivial difference, so no real benefit at all.
