Marinades and calories

Hope this is the right place for this question.

I'm out at the store. Chicken is on sale and so are Marinades. I was thinking about getting one but it was trying to figure out how do I incorporate the marinades calories into my tracking? It says each serving is 15 calories and obviously the entire bottle is not being absorbed into the chicken... is there a way to determine this?

Thanks!

    Weigh the marinade before you put the chicken in and after you take it out. That will tell you how much was absorbed.

    Yeah I got to thinking that same thing after making the post.

    Thanks.
