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
Pan-browned crumbles are 189 kcal per 100 g against 143 raw, and nothing was added: about a quarter of the weight left as water, so the same calories now sit in fewer grams. Fat rendering into the pan pulls in the other direction, and how much of it stays with the meat depends entirely on whether you drain it. USDA's figure assumes the crumbles as browned, undrained.
Logging this food
A 3 oz portion is 85 g and 160 kcal. This is the row for mince you weigh after cooking, which for crumbles stirred into a sauce is rarely possible — in that case weigh the raw packet and use the raw row instead. Logging a cooked weight against the raw figure understates the meal by about a quarter, which on a 200 g serving is roughly 90 kcal.
Swaps and alternatives
Cooked ground turkey at 93% lean is 213 kcal per 100 g, so ground chicken is the leaner of the two by 24. A broiled turkey patty is 207. All three are within about 12% of one another, which means the choice between them changes very little; draining the pan, or grinding breast meat yourself, changes considerably more.
