My question is: What provides the maximum of calories for the cheapest price?
The options in this experience are :
Uranium-235, Newborn babies and olive oil.

DISCLAIMER:
URANIUM-235 IS INCREDIBLY ILLEGAL TO POSSESS
URANIUM-235 IS VERY RADIOACTIVE, IF YOU EAT IT YOU WILL DIE
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CONSUME U-235. THIS PUBLICATION IS SOLELY MEANT AS A JOKE
PLEASE DO NOT ENGAGE IN CANNIBALISM. IT IS ALSO ILLEGAL.
DO NOT TRY ANYRHING SAID HERE SERIOUSLY, THOUGH THE FACTS ARE TRUE, THIS EXPERIMENT IS PIRELY THEORETICAL, AND SHOULD STAY THIS WAY. PLEASE.

With the disclaimer done, we must accept 3 facts:
1. Uranium-235, or U-235 Contains 20 billion calories in 1 gram
2. Newborn babies contain on average 12,833 calories
3. 1 litre of olive oil contains 822 calories

Unit conversion can be done on request, whether you don't like litres or if you don't like CAD, or anything else.

In true scientific fashion, you must make a hypothesis.
Make yours here ————>

Firstly,
Because of the high calorie content of U-235, it would take approximately 1,559,697 babies to equalize the calorie content. Taking into account the cost of adoption in Canada, which is from 5,000 to 12,000 CAD, this option would cost you from around 7.8 billion CAD to around 18.7 billion CAD. (Tax not included)

Secondly,
Because of the high calorie content of U-235, it would take approximately 24,330,900 litres of olive oil to equalize the calorie content. We will be using the cost of extra virgin olive oil from Costco, which is 42.99 CAD for 3 litres. This option will cost you about 1 billion CAD. (tax not included)

Thirdly,
U-235 is highly illegal to possess, so I couldn't find a price for it. However, unrefined uranium is quite cheap in canada, around 60 CAD per kg. Now, unrefined uranium is approximately 4.5% U-235, so if you own a gas centrifuge, you can purify it. You can also buy a decent on for around 20,000 CAD online. So, this option costs range from around 45 CAD to around 20,000 CAD. (Taxes not included)

In conclusion,
In order to consume a maximum of calories with minimal spending, U-235 is the way to go, costing merely 20,000 CAD, instead of babies which is around 18.7 Billion CAD, or olive oil, which is around 1 billion CAD. Thanks for listening!

Numbers below if u want full stats
(Not perfect)

1,559,697 babies per gram of uranium 235 (cals)
7,798,485,000 CAD

24,330,900 litres of olive oil per gram of uranium 235 (cals)
1,045,985,391 CAD

130 CAD for unrefined uranium
