Compare all 5 food records, nutrition tables and USDA sources

The 5 exact records in this guide report 14–61 calories in the records' own listed source servings and 42–73 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 Snowpeas, begin by separating “Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, fat added” from “Snowpeas, raw.” 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 5 named USDA records in view: 5 direct matches. All sit within “Other vegetables and combinations.” 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 5 records together under the exact grouping key “snowpeas.” That rule determines membership before any nutrition result is read.

For Snowpeas, this page can compare 5 named records from FDC 2709986 through FDC 2709806. 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

33–83 g before composition

The largest source amount is 2.5× 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 “raw”; the higher is “frozen, cooked, fat added.” This isolates density, not ingredient causation.

Discriminator

126 mg sodium gap per 100 g

Of protein, fiber, and sodium, the strongest normalized contrast is between “raw” (4 mg) and “fresh, cooked, fat added” (130 mg).

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 snowpeas.

Important: “Lower” begins with Snowpeas, raw; “higher” ends with Snowpeas, frozen, cooked, fat added, using each record’s own source amount. Those labels order this selected set only—they are not endpoints for every snowpeas meal.

Full comparison

Compare every selected FNDDS record

For Snowpeas, 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 33 to 83 grams—a 50-gram gap before composition enters the comparison. Their own source servings run from 14 calories for “raw” to 61 for “frozen, cooked, fat added.” At a fixed 100 grams, “raw” is 42 calories and “frozen, cooked, fat added” is 73—a fixed-weight separation of 31 calories. For Snowpeas, 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 “fresh, cooked, fat added”, “fresh, cooked, no added fat”, “frozen, cooked, fat added”, “frozen, cooked, no added fat”, and “raw”. The source formulations contain 4 distinct ingredient codes; examples that appear in only part of the set include salt, table, peas, edible-podded, raw, oil or table fat, nfs, and peas, edible-podded, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt. On this Snowpeas 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 “Snowpeas” cannot resolve the differences between Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, fat added and Snowpeas, raw. 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 33–83 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 “fresh, cooked, fat added”, “fresh, cooked, no added fat”, “frozen, cooked, fat added”, “frozen, cooked, no added fat”, and “raw”. Those phrases are evidence for choosing a record, not decorative subtitle text.

  3. 03

    Formulation evidence, with limits

    4 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 “Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, fat added” leaves the eaten grams and unnamed oils, sauces, toppings, substitutions, or leftovers unresolved. Preserve those Snowpeas 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 snowpeas is the right meal family. Then resolve the phrases that actually separate this set—“fresh, cooked, fat added”, “fresh, cooked, no added fat”, “frozen, cooked, no added fat”, and “raw”—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 Snowpeas 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 5 exact records behind Snowpeas 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

Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, fat added is higher in sodium per 100 g

Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, fat added reports 130 mg versus 4 mg for Snowpeas, raw: a 126 mg difference when both are normalized to 100 g.

Inspect the underlying evidence

The denominator changes the answer

Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, no added fat is denser; Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, fat added is higher in its source amount

Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, no added fat reports 2.9 g per 100 g and 2.3 g in USDA source amount (80 g). Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, fat added reports a lower 2.8 g per 100 g but a higher 2.3 g in USDA source amount (83 g).

Choose the record before reading the number

Snowpeas, fresh, cooked, fat added and Snowpeas, raw are not interchangeable

The page keeps both records at the same 100 g denominator and makes Preparation wording (No matching controlled term in the source name versus raw) 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.
