Appearance in popular culture

CalorieMate makes an appearance in the video game "". The item is pictured as a chocolate-flavoured CalorieMate Block, and fully restores Naked Snake's stamina when consumed. The game's setting of 1964 however makes the appearance of CalorieMates quite an anachronism.

CalorieMate has also teamed up with Kiefer Sutherland to help promote their products through numerous commercials.

In Kazuya Minekura's WILD ADAPTER CalorieMate blocks are a favorite treat of the main character Minoru Tokito
