Edible portion refers to the amount that can actually be eaten, after trimming and cooking. For example, 1 pound of raw ground beef will not give you one pound of cooked ground beef; some of that weight will be lost in the cooking process as moisture and fat cook out. 1 pound (16 oz) of raw ground beef will yield about 13 oz of cooked ground beef.
