    The entry for 'cooked chicken' may have been cooked in oil, sprayed with oil, basted with butter or left untouched. If you just select a 'cooked chicken breast' you don't know that the cooking method (and therefore the number of calories) matches your cooking method. I always weigh raw and add any oils, butter, spices etc.

    well, that comes under the 'accurate enough' tipping point.

    and youcan pick an entry that matches your cooking method - roasted ,grilled etc

    If I cook a roast chicken I am happy to use a reliable entry for roast chicken.

    Small variables are too small to matter.
