What this page compares

Named source records, not one universal meal

This guide keeps 3 named USDA records in view: 3 direct matches. All sit within “Salad dressings and vegetable oils.” The exact descriptions remain the unit of comparison; the familiar heading is only the doorway into the evidence.

Why these records appear together: The deterministic grouping rule “normalized first description segment” placed these 3 records together under the exact grouping key “blue or roquefort cheese dressing.” That rule determines membership before any nutrition result is read.

For Blue or roquefort cheese dressing, this page can compare 3 named records from FDC 2710197 through FDC 2710216. It cannot observe which preparation was eaten, recover unnamed additions, or supply the eaten grams.

Editor’s decision brief

The three facts to carry into the table

Carry the denominator, exact identity, and strongest observed contrast into every number below.

Portion

31–33 g before composition

The largest source amount is 1.1× the smallest. Read per-serving calorie differences with that mass gap in view.

Composition

369 kcal separates the fixed-weight endpoints

The lower endpoint is “fat free”; the higher is “Blue or roquefort cheese dressing.” This isolates density, not ingredient causation.

Discriminator

1.4 g fiber gap per 100 g

Of protein, fiber, and sodium, the strongest normalized contrast is between “Blue or roquefort cheese dressing” (0.4 g) and “fat free” (1.8 g).

Observed source examples

Three landmarks inside this source set—not universal endpoints

The cards are ordered by calories in each record's listed serving. Serving weights differ, so use per-100-gram values to compare composition. These selected records do not define a calorie range for every blue or roquefort cheese dressing.

Important: “Lower” begins with Blue or roquefort cheese dressing, fat free; “higher” ends with Blue or roquefort cheese dressing, using each record’s own source amount. Those labels order this selected set only—they are not endpoints for every blue or roquefort cheese dressing meal.

Full comparison

Compare every selected FNDDS record

For Blue or roquefort cheese dressing, serving columns preserve each record’s own listed amount, while calories per 100 g hold weight constant. A dash means the cited record does not supply that field; it does not mean the nutrient is absent.

On smaller screens, focus the table and scroll horizontally to read every column.

Portion analysis

Serving total and calorie density answer different questions

The listed source amounts run from 31 to 33 grams—a 2-gram gap before composition enters the comparison. Their own source servings run from 38 calories for “fat free” to 150 for “Blue or roquefort cheese dressing.” At a fixed 100 grams, “fat free” is 115 calories and “Blue or roquefort cheese dressing” is 484—a fixed-weight separation of 369 calories. For Blue or roquefort cheese dressing, the serving view answers “how much is in the database portion?”; the 100-gram view answers “how concentrated is the matched record?” Neither reveals how many grams were actually eaten.

The scaling rule: multiply a per-100-gram value by eaten grams ÷ 100. The arithmetic is exact; the result is only as defensible as the record match and portion estimate.

Preparation analysis

The long description carries the evidence

The published descriptions distinguish forms such as “Blue or roquefort cheese dressing”, “fat free”, and “light”. The source formulations contain 2 distinct ingredient codes; examples that appear in only part of the set include salad dressing, blue or roquefort cheese dressing, commercial, regular and salad dressing, blue or roquefort cheese dressing, fat-free. On this Blue or roquefort cheese dressing page, those rows make the records inspectable, but they are not a controlled experiment: they cannot tell us that one named input, by itself, caused a nutrient difference.

Database precision is not meal certainty. Retain the exact description beside the number so later corrections remain possible.

What changes the comparison

Four drivers worth checking before choosing a record

The family label “Blue or roquefort cheese dressing” cannot resolve the differences between Blue or roquefort cheese dressing and Blue or roquefort cheese dressing, light. The four checks below identify the record wording, source weight, and formulation evidence that can.

  1. 01

    Source weight before serving calories

    The source amounts span 31–33 grams. Compare per 100 grams before reading a serving-calorie gap as a composition gap.

  2. 02

    The words that split the family

    Representative record-level distinctions include “Blue or roquefort cheese dressing”, “fat free”, and “light”. Those phrases are evidence for choosing a record, not decorative subtitle text.

  3. 03

    Formulation evidence, with limits

    2 source-input codes appear across the selected records. Their presence and listed weights describe USDA formulations, not finished plated proportions.

  4. 04

    The unresolved plate

    Even “Blue or roquefort cheese dressing” leaves the eaten grams and unnamed oils, sauces, toppings, substitutions, or leftovers unresolved. Preserve those Blue or roquefort cheese dressing unknowns for correction instead of converting them into false precision.

Record matching

Match identity first; scale quantity second

Read the source name as a sequence of decisions. First confirm that blue or roquefort cheese dressing is the right meal family. Then resolve the phrases that actually separate this set—“Blue or roquefort cheese dressing”, “fat free”, and “light”—before comparing gram weight. If a package, menu, or known recipe provides a closer first-party description, prefer it and keep this USDA record as a transparent fallback.

A practical matching checklist

  1. Read the complete Blue or roquefort cheese dressing source description, including preparation and additions.
  2. Compare the listed source weight with the amount actually eaten.
  3. Prefer a current package or restaurant source when a specific branded item is known.
  4. Record toppings, sauces, cooking fat, sides, and substitutions that the selected description does not name.

Decision support from the exact records on this page

Turn source data into a better next decision

These conclusions and reading paths are computed from 3 exact records behind Blue or roquefort cheese dressing source-record guide. Links are chosen by record identity, controlled contrast, formulation input, nutrient spread, or serving context—not by loose keyword similarity.

Inspect the underlying evidence

Check the weight before comparing serving totals

Source amounts span 31–33 g

Choose the record before reading the number

Blue or roquefort cheese dressing, fat free and Blue or roquefort cheese dressing, light are not interchangeable

The page keeps both records at the same 100 g denominator and makes Fat-level wording (nonfat or fat-free wording versus No matching controlled term in the source name) the explicit record-description contrast. It does not show that the wording difference caused a nutrient difference. Pick the description that matches the food in front of you rather than averaging away the distinction.
