Compare all 3 food records, nutrition tables and USDA sources

The 3 exact records in this guide report 0–115 calories in the records' own listed source servings and 0–31 calories per 100 grams. Those are observations from named database records—not a universal range or an estimate of an unseen plate.

Match my meal

Start with the description closest to what you ate

For Iced Coffee, begin by separating “Iced Coffee, brewed” from “Iced Coffee, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened.” Choosing a card filters this source set; it does not infer the portion or fill in ingredients the chosen description does not name.

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 “Coffee.” 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 “iced coffee.” That rule determines membership before any nutrition result is read.

For Iced Coffee, this page can compare 3 named records from FDC 2710428 through FDC 2710430. 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

360–372 g before composition

The largest source amount is 1.0× the smallest. Read per-serving calorie differences with that mass gap in view.

Composition

31 kcal separates the fixed-weight endpoints

The lower endpoint is “decaffeinated”; the higher is “pre-lightened and pre-sweetened.” This isolates density, not ingredient causation.

Discriminator

0.2 g protein gap per 100 g

Of protein, fiber, and sodium, the strongest normalized contrast is between “decaffeinated” (0.1 g) and “pre-lightened and pre-sweetened” (0.3 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 iced coffee.

Important: “Lower” begins with Iced Coffee, brewed, decaffeinated; “higher” ends with Iced Coffee, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened, using each record’s own source amount. Those labels order this selected set only—they are not endpoints for every iced coffee meal.

Full comparison

Compare every selected FNDDS record

For Iced Coffee, 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 360 to 372 grams—a 12-gram gap before composition enters the comparison. Their own source servings run from 0 calories for “decaffeinated” to 115 for “pre-lightened and pre-sweetened.” At a fixed 100 grams, “decaffeinated” is 0 calories and “pre-lightened and pre-sweetened” is 31—a fixed-weight separation of 31 calories. For Iced Coffee, 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 “brewed”, “brewed, decaffeinated”, and “pre-lightened and pre-sweetened”. Across the source formulations, the shared backbone includes beverages, water, tap, municipal; differentiating rows include beverages, coffee, brewed, prepared with tap water, beverages, coffee, brewed, prepared with tap water, decaffeinated, cream, fluid, light (coffee cream or table cream), and sugars, granulated. On this Iced Coffee 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 “Iced Coffee” cannot resolve the differences between Iced Coffee, brewed and Iced Coffee, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened. 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 360–372 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 “brewed”, “brewed, decaffeinated”, and “pre-lightened and pre-sweetened”. 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, municipal; rows that vary across the set include beverages, coffee, brewed, prepared with tap water, beverages, coffee, brewed, prepared with tap water, decaffeinated, and cream, fluid, light (coffee cream or table cream). Presence is inspectable evidence, not proof of nutrient causation.

  4. 04

    The unresolved plate

    Even “Iced Coffee, brewed” leaves the eaten grams and unnamed oils, sauces, toppings, substitutions, or leftovers unresolved. Preserve those Iced Coffee 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 iced coffee is the right meal family. Then resolve the phrases that actually separate this set—“brewed”, “brewed, decaffeinated”, and “pre-lightened and pre-sweetened”—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 Iced Coffee 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 Iced Coffee source-record guide. Links are chosen by record identity, controlled contrast, formulation input, nutrient spread, or serving context—not by loose keyword similarity.

Equal-weight result

Iced Coffee, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened is higher in calories per 100 g

Iced Coffee, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened reports 31 kcal versus 0 kcal for Iced Coffee, brewed, decaffeinated: a 31 kcal difference when both are normalized to 100 g.

Inspect the underlying evidence

Check the weight before comparing serving totals

Source amounts span 360–372 g

Iced Coffee, brewed uses USDA source amount (360 g), while Iced Coffee, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened uses USDA source amount (372 g). Use per 100 g for equal-weight composition; use the serving column only when those named source amounts answer your question.

Record identity is part of the estimate

Distinguish “Iced Coffee, brewed” from “Iced Coffee, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened”

These are separate USDA records with separate formulations or survey descriptions. Match preparation, additions, and the named household amount before borrowing either record’s nutrients.
