💎 Key Nutrients
Fried Squid Nutrition per 100g
Per 100 g cooked, fried squid, the record lists 175 calories, 17.94 g protein, 7.48 g fat, 1.878 g saturated fat, 7.79 g carbohydrate, 306 mg sodium and 260 mg cholesterol. It lists 0 g total sugar and 0 g fiber. The food is described as mixed species, so species, breading, oil and portion size can make a prepared dish differ from this reference.
What the Fried Preparation Changes
Some fried preparations use batter or another coating, and frying can add oil; the amount retained varies with the product, oil, time and draining. Therefore this entry should not be substituted for raw or grilled squid. Dipping sauces, salt and side dishes are outside the 100 g food record and need separate tracking. For a plate, weigh the edible cooked squid and add the other ingredients.
Protein, Sodium and Cholesterol in Context
The 17.94 g protein per 100 g is a direct database value. Sodium is 306 mg and cholesterol is 260 mg per 100 g, so people following a clinician-directed sodium or cholesterol limit should compare the portion with their plan. Do not infer omega-3, selenium or vitamin B12 amounts here because they are not present in this record.
Serving and Food Safety
A small appetizer plate can contain more than 100 g, especially with breading and sauce, so use the actual edible weight when estimating calories. Cook squid thoroughly and keep raw seafood separate from ready-to-eat food. USDA FSIS lists 145°F (62.8°C) as the minimum internal temperature for fish and shellfish; refrigerate cooked leftovers promptly.
