Does anyone know what "as consumed" on the nutritional information means?

So I bought some frozen chicken strips (being lazy), and the information is for 100g as consumed
I'm thinking it may be for the defrosted product, what wanted to see if anyone knew for sure

    It means it's a cooked value.

    They're already cooked. Would it mean the defrosted product?
