A lot of people ask about the calories of the battery without considering the calories they are consuming with the battery, which are often much higher than the calories of the battery itself. If you are looking to lose weight, you should just put less mayo on the battery, or use low-fat mayo. And when you're getting that battery acid taste out of your mouth, do it with water, not sugary sodas.

So, how many AA batteries would it take to power a standard adult human for one day?
A Manganese/Alkaline AA cell it rated at about 2.4 amp-hours. If we assume 1.5 volts average this gives approximately 3.6 watt-hours (slightly optimistic). Since there are 3,600 seconds in an hour this is equivalent to 12,960 Joules.
A human consumes about 2,000 calories/day. A dietician calorie is equal to 1,000 engineering calories. A calorie is equal to 4.2 Joules. Therefore this is equivalent to 2,000 * 1,000 * 4.2 = 8.4 * 106 Joules per day.
Dividing one by the other you will need about 648 AA cells to power a human for one day.
This assumes that the power from the AA cell will go through the same inefficiencies as the chemical processes in a human. (A human runs at about 20% efficiency chemical energy to mechanical energy). If we can circumvent this inefficiency we would only need 20% of this number of cells - say 130 cells.
