Drained weight is the food content of the can without the liquid or the can itself.
There are two weights on some canned goods. The higher one, eg 440g, refers to the total weight of the contents. The lower one, eg 260g, refers to the weight of the solid contents of the can.
This only applies where the liquid part of the contents isn't intended to be eaten, a can of processed peas would be drained before serving so this would have a drained weight; whereas with a can of baked beans the liquid 'sauce' would be eaten, so there would be no drained weight.
The drained weight figure is obtained by draining a representative can though a sieve with a legally defined mesh size, at a defined angle for a specified time. This ensures that all drain weights a comparable to each other.
