About Chicken, dark meat, drumstick, meat only, with added solution, cooked, roasted
Roasted drumstick meat, skin removed, from birds injected with a salt or broth solution before sale. The added solution plumps the meat, helps it stay moist in the oven, and adds sodium that plain drumstick meat would not have. Protein runs high after roasting, fat stays low. For anyone tracking sodium carefully, the "with added solution" label is worth noting because the salt content is meaningfully higher than in unseasoned birds. Otherwise it functions exactly like any roasted dark meat.
