			Nutritional Analysis for the recipes in this book were done using the "worst case scenario" method. In other words, maximum cooked weight was assumed. In most cases, the cooked results may be lower than what's given in a recipe, but you can't count on that. (Check the cooked weigh and you'll confirm that you're accounting for the correct food amounts.)
