Energy comes from USDA nutrient 1008. Salt is calculated as sodium × 2.5, with unit conversion to grams. It is not a separately measured salt value.
Preparation
Chocolate milk made with whole milk is 83 kcal per 100 g against plain whole milk's 61. The extra 22 is sugar: carbohydrate goes from 4.8 g per 100 g to 10.3, which is more than double, while the fat and protein barely move. Nothing here is cooked — the difference is entirely what was stirred in before it reached the carton.
Logging this food
A cup is 250 g and 208 kcal, a quart 1,000 g and 830. Chocolate milk is drunk in larger servings than plain milk and often straight from a bottle, so the useful habit is to log the container rather than the glass: a 500 ml bottle is around 415 kcal, which is a meal's worth of drink.
Swaps and alternatives
Plain whole milk is 61 kcal per 100 g, so the chocolate costs 22 per 100 g — about 55 on a cup. Made with skim milk instead of whole it would land near 56 per 100 g. As a post-exercise drink its sugar and protein together are the point; as a habit, it is a soft drink with milk in it.
