    The database has entries for cooked meat. You can log it like that. You may have to distinguish between white and dark meat, as well as different parts of the bird's body, but you can still log by weight.

    1. https://fdc.nal.usda.gov/fdc-app.html#/
    2. Put in "turkey cooked"
    3. Uncheck everything but "require all words" and "SR legacy"
    4. Select the appropriate syntax and paste that into MFP, ex: "Turkey, whole, dark meat, cooked, roasted"
    5. Add the weight and you are done!
