I'm not concerned about the Ca in this instance, I can work around that. My concern is whether to use cooked weight or raw weight in the calculation. The difference between your two calculations above, is that you are not adding back water in the second calculation, you are adding back fat and other nutrients, sort of liquid meat. In the same way adding chicken skin affects the Alnutrin calculation, the cooked liquid returned to the meat must have a factor in the end result.
I equate raw meat to cooked meat if all cooked liquids are added back. We are not expected to determine the DMB weight of our raw meat when using the calculator. So if we add back in all the cooked liquid from that (now cooked) raw meat, how can we ignore it when using the calculator?
Am I looking at this picture wrong?
