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

140–161 g before composition

The largest source amount is 1.2× the smallest. Read per-serving calorie differences with that mass gap in view.

Composition

28 kcal separates the fixed-weight endpoints

The lower endpoint is “fried, on wheat bun”; the higher is “fried, from fast food, with cheese.” This isolates density, not ingredient causation.

Discriminator

1.6 g fiber gap per 100 g

Of protein, fiber, and sodium, the strongest normalized contrast is between “fried, from fast food, with cheese” (1.5 g) and “fried, on wheat bun” (3.1 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 chicken fillet sandwich, fried.

Important: “Lower” begins with Chicken fillet sandwich, fried, on wheat bun; “higher” ends with Chicken fillet sandwich, fried, from fast food, with cheese, using each record’s own source amount. Those labels order this selected set only—they are not endpoints for every chicken fillet sandwich, fried meal.

Full comparison

Compare every selected FNDDS record

For Chicken fillet sandwich, fried, 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 140 to 161 grams—a 21-gram gap before composition enters the comparison. Their own source servings run from 368 calories for “fried, on wheat bun” to 469 for “fried, from fast food, with cheese.” At a fixed 100 grams, “fried, on wheat bun” is 263 calories and “fried, from fast food, with cheese” is 291—a fixed-weight separation of 28 calories. For Chicken fillet sandwich, fried, 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 “fried, from fast food”, “fried, from fast food, with cheese”, “fried, on wheat bun, with cheese”, “fried, on white bun”, and “fried, on white bun; with cheese”. Across the source formulations, the shared backbone includes chicken tenders, breaded, frozen, prepared and industrial oil as ingredient in food; differentiating rows include rolls, hamburger or hotdog, plain, cheese as ingredient in sandwiches, salt, table, and wheat bun as ingredient in sandwiches. On this Chicken fillet sandwich, fried 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 “Chicken fillet sandwich, fried” cannot resolve the differences between Chicken fillet sandwich, fried, from fast food and Chicken fillet sandwich, fried, on white bun; with cheese. 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 140–161 grams. Compare per 100 grams before reading a serving-calorie gap as a composition gap.

  3. 03

    Formulation evidence, with limits

    Shared source rows include chicken tenders, breaded, frozen, prepared and industrial oil as ingredient in food; rows that vary across the set include rolls, hamburger or hotdog, plain, cheese as ingredient in sandwiches, and salt, table. Presence is inspectable evidence, not proof of nutrient causation.

  4. 04

    The unresolved plate
