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
297 kcal per 100 g browned against 263 raw. The rise is water leaving, not fat arriving, and it happens even though a good deal of fat renders out — with 20.8 g still in the cooked crumbles, this is the fattiest cooked mince in the set. USDA's figure is the crumbles as browned; fat poured back into a sauce is not counted twice, but it is counted, and it is real.
Logging this food
A 3 oz portion is 85 g and 252 kcal. Use this only if you weighed the pan. Pork mince usually goes straight into something wet, so the raw row at 263 per 100 g and the packet weight is the practical log. Crossing the two costs about 13%, which is smaller than the beef equivalent because pork loses proportionally less water.
Swaps and alternatives
Cooked 95% lean beef is 164 kcal per 100 g against this row's 297 — nearly half. Cooked ground chicken is 189 and 93% turkey 213. If the dish needs pork's flavour, using half pork and half a leaner mince keeps most of it: the calories move almost exactly in proportion to the mix.
