What this page compares

Named source records, not one universal meal

This guide keeps 6 named USDA records in view: 6 direct matches. All sit within “Meat 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 6 records together under the exact grouping key “pork potatoes.” That rule determines membership before any nutrition result is read.

For Pork potatoes and vegetables, this page can compare 6 named records from FDC 2706646 through FDC 2706641. 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

121–189 g before composition

The largest source amount is 1.6× the smallest. Read per-serving calorie differences with that mass gap in view.

Composition

7 kcal separates the fixed-weight endpoints

The lower endpoint is “and dark-green leafy; gravy”; the higher is “and dark-green leafy; no sauce.” This isolates density, not ingredient causation.

Discriminator

1.6 g protein gap per 100 g

Of protein, fiber, and sodium, the strongest normalized contrast is between “and/or dark-green leafy; gravy” (5.0 g) and “and dark-green leafy; no sauce” (6.6 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 pork potatoes and vegetables.

Important: “Lower” begins with Pork, potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; no sauce; “higher” ends with Pork, potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce, using each record’s own source amount. Those labels order this selected set only—they are not endpoints for every pork potatoes and vegetables meal.

Full comparison

Compare every selected FNDDS record

For Pork potatoes and vegetables, 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 121 to 189 grams—a 68-gram gap before composition enters the comparison. Their own source servings run from 155 calories for “and/or dark-green leafy; no sauce” to 242 for “and/or dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce.” At a fixed 100 grams, “and dark-green leafy; gravy” is 126 calories and “and dark-green leafy; no sauce” is 133—a fixed-weight separation of 7 calories. For Pork potatoes and vegetables, 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 “potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; gravy”, “potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no sauce”, “potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; gravy”, “potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; no sauce”, and “potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce”. Across the source formulations, the shared backbone includes pork, fresh, loin, whole, separable lean only, cooked, roasted, potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt, and salt, table; differentiating rows include beans, snap, green, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained without salt, carrots, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt, corn, sweet, yellow, frozen, kernels cut off cob, boiled, drained, without salt, and broccoli, frozen, chopped, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt. On this Pork potatoes and vegetables 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 “Pork potatoes and vegetables” cannot resolve the differences between Pork, potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; gravy and Pork, potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce. 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 121–189 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 “potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; gravy”, “potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no sauce”, “potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; gravy”, “potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; no sauce”, and “potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce”. Those phrases are evidence for choosing a record, not decorative subtitle text.

  3. 03

    Formulation evidence, with limits

    Shared source rows include pork, fresh, loin, whole, separable lean only, cooked, roasted and potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt; rows that vary across the set include beans, snap, green, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained without salt, carrots, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt, and corn, sweet, yellow, frozen, kernels cut off cob, boiled, drained, without salt. Presence is inspectable evidence, not proof of nutrient causation.

  4. 04

    The unresolved plate

    Even “Pork, …, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; gravy” leaves the eaten grams and unnamed oils, sauces, toppings, substitutions, or leftovers unresolved. Preserve those Pork potatoes and vegetables 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 pork potatoes and vegetables is the right meal family. Then resolve the phrases that actually separate this set—“potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; gravy”, “potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce”, “potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; gravy”, and “potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce”—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 Pork potatoes and vegetables 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.
