Two Calk examples
The two versions compared on this page.

What causes the difference
In these two examples, the changes are: coating — added: heavy breaded, fatty, sauce — added: ranch dressing, cooking method — grilled → deep-fried.
Main: grilled → Deep-friedCoating: + Heavy breaded, fattySauce: + Ranch dressing
- The chicken fillet is the same, but heavy breading retains frying oil and adds almost as many calories as the meat.
- Grilling versus frying changes the total by roughly 100 kcal per 100 g. The fried chicken lands at about 258.
- A tablespoon of ranch adds most of the sauce calories on top.
