Composition of chicken meat

Hi Everyone

I have looked at a 160g packet of sliced roast chicken from Sainsbury's and it says that half a pack contains the following:

Fat: 1.3g

Carbohydrates: <0.5g

Fibre: <0.5g

Protein: 22.3g

From the above data, I have calculated that 69.25% of the sliced roast chicken is neither fat, carbohydrates, fibre or protein. Does anyone here know what the 69.25% consists of?

Thank you very much.

Kind regards

Tim
