Research context and ingredient forms
Reference food: Game meat, goat, cooked, roasted. These are historical SR Legacy data from the April 2018 release, published in FoodData Central in 2019. A different variety, preparation, water content, or commercial recipe can change the result. For a matching food, a portion estimate scales each value by edible portion grams divided by 100.
Using this information
A plain roasted-meat profile does not include the sauce, oil, or vegetables in a stew or curry. Use the cooked edible meat weight for the comparison.
