Do you count the food and oil both, or is the category "fried food" caloric count inclusive of food and oil.

    Are you referring to a homemade version? If so, I would create my own recipe. For store/restaurant bought, it definitely includes both.

    For homemade you can get really precise if you measure the oil before and after to determine how much is in the food. Don't forget the amount that drains off.
