Does grilled salmon weigh the same as raw salmon?

The salmon example they gave is ridiculously obvious and they should have varied that weights to prove their point. But either way 5 oz of cooked salmon and 5 oz of raw salmon are the same thing. It’s still 5 oz of salmon. If you cook it and it goes to 3 oz then by all means weigh it again.
