What this page compares

Named source records, not one universal meal

This guide keeps 4 named USDA records in view: 4 direct matches. All sit within “Other Mexican mixed dishes.” 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 two description segments” placed these 4 records together under the exact grouping key “burrito bowl chicken.” That rule determines membership before any nutrition result is read.

For Burrito bowl, chicken, this page can compare 4 named records from FDC 2708560 through FDC 2708561. 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

225–315 g before composition

The largest source amount is 1.4× the smallest. Read per-serving calorie differences with that mass gap in view.

Composition

26 kcal separates the fixed-weight endpoints

The lower endpoint is “with beans”; the higher is “chicken.” This isolates density, not ingredient causation.

Discriminator

1.8 g fiber gap per 100 g

Of protein, fiber, and sodium, the strongest normalized contrast is between “chicken” (0.0 g) and “with beans” (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 burrito bowl, chicken.

Important: “Lower” begins with Burrito bowl, chicken; “higher” ends with Burrito bowl, chicken, with beans and rice, using each record’s own source amount. Those labels order this selected set only—they are not endpoints for every burrito bowl, chicken meal.

Full comparison

Compare every selected FNDDS record

For Burrito bowl, chicken, 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 225 to 315 grams—a 90-gram gap before composition enters the comparison. Their own source servings run from 362 calories for “chicken” to 457 for “with beans and rice.” At a fixed 100 grams, “with beans” is 135 calories and “chicken” is 161—a fixed-weight separation of 26 calories. For Burrito bowl, chicken, 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 “chicken”, “chicken, with beans”, “chicken, with beans and rice”, and “chicken, with rice”. Across the source formulations, the shared backbone includes beverages, water, tap, drinking, cheese and queso as ingredient, and chicken as ingredient in recipes; differentiating rows include refried beans, canned, traditional, reduced sodium and rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked. On this Burrito bowl, chicken 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 “Burrito bowl, chicken” cannot resolve the differences between Burrito bowl, chicken and Burrito bowl, chicken, with rice. 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 225–315 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 “chicken”, “chicken, with beans”, “chicken, with beans and rice”, and “chicken, with rice”. Those phrases are evidence for choosing a record, not decorative subtitle text.

  3. 03

    Formulation evidence, with limits

    Shared source rows include beverages, water, tap, drinking and cheese and queso as ingredient; rows that vary across the set include refried beans, canned, traditional, reduced sodium and rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked. Presence is inspectable evidence, not proof of nutrient causation.

  4. 04

    The unresolved plate

    Even “Burrito bowl, chicken” leaves the eaten grams and unnamed oils, sauces, toppings, substitutions, or leftovers unresolved. Preserve those Burrito bowl, chicken 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 burrito bowl, chicken is the right meal family. Then resolve the phrases that actually separate this set—“chicken”, “chicken, with beans”, “chicken, with beans and rice”, and “chicken, with rice”—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 Burrito bowl, chicken 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.
