Compare all 3 food records, nutrition tables and USDA sources

The current corpus has one record explicitly labeled as a sushi roll. Two topped-sushi records provide a narrow view of nearby FNDDS coverage, but the page does not turn nigiri-style descriptions into roll estimates or invent missing roll varieties.

Match my meal

Start with the description closest to what you ate

For Sushi rolls, begin by separating “Sushi roll, shrimp” from “Sushi, topped with egg.” 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: 1 direct match and 2 explicitly labeled context records. All sit within “Egg rolls, dumplings, sushi.” The exact descriptions remain the unit of comparison; the familiar heading is only the doorway into the evidence.

For Sushi rolls, this page can compare 3 named records from FDC 2708964 through FDC 2708972. 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

180–210 g before composition

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

Composition

19 kcal separates the fixed-weight endpoints

The lower endpoint is “shrimp”; the higher is “topped with egg.” This isolates density, not ingredient causation.

Discriminator

2.1 g protein gap per 100 g

Of protein, fiber, and sodium, the strongest normalized contrast is between “shrimp” (7.0 g) and “topped with shrimp” (9.1 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 sushi rolls.

Important: “Lower” begins with Sushi roll, shrimp; “higher” ends with Sushi, topped with egg, using each record’s own source amount. Those labels order this selected set only—they are not endpoints for every sushi rolls meal.

Full comparison

Compare every selected FNDDS record

For Sushi rolls, 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.

Context record Context records are intentionally nearby but non-equivalent descriptions. Their presence documents a sparse source category; it does not broaden the meaning of Sushi rolls.

Portion analysis

Serving total and calorie density answer different questions

The listed source amounts run from 180 to 210 grams—a 30-gram gap before composition enters the comparison. Their own source servings run from 180 calories for “shrimp” to 238 for “topped with egg.” At a fixed 100 grams, “shrimp” is 100 calories and “topped with egg” is 119—a fixed-weight separation of 19 calories. For Sushi rolls, 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 “shrimp”, “topped with shrimp”, and “topped with egg”. Across the source formulations, the shared backbone includes rice, white, glutinous, unenriched, cooked, salt, table, and sugars, granulated; differentiating rows include crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, cooked, moist heat (may contain additives to retain moisture), seaweed, laver, raw, and egg omelet or scrambled egg, no added fat. On this Sushi rolls 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 “Sushi rolls” cannot resolve the differences between Sushi roll, shrimp and Sushi, topped with egg. The four checks below identify the record wording, source weight, and formulation evidence that can.

  1. 01

    Rice per piece

    Tightly packed or oversized rolls can carry a different amount of rice even at the same piece count.

  2. 02

    Roll construction

    A roll and topped sushi distribute rice and filling differently and should retain separate labels.

  3. 03

    Fried and creamy additions

    Tempura, cream cheese, mayonnaise-based fillings, and sauces can change a specialty roll materially.

  4. 04

    Piece count and weight

    Six, eight, or ten pieces do not imply a common total weight across restaurants.

Record matching

Match identity first; scale quantity second

Read the source name as a sequence of decisions. First confirm that sushi rolls is the right meal family. Then resolve the phrases that actually separate this set—“shrimp”, “topped with shrimp”, and “topped with egg”—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. Keep roll and topped-sushi records distinct.
  2. Count pieces and use total weight when available.
  3. Identify primary filling and fried components.
  4. Record cream cheese and sauces rather than relying on the menu 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 Sushi rolls 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

Sushi, topped with egg is higher in vitamin D per 100 g

Sushi, topped with egg reports 1.3 µg versus 0 µg for Sushi roll, shrimp: a 1.3 µg difference when both are normalized to 100 g.

Inspect the underlying evidence

The denominator changes the answer

Sushi roll, shrimp is denser; Sushi, topped with shrimp is higher in its source amount

Sushi roll, shrimp reports 358 mg per 100 g and 644 mg in USDA source amount (180 g). Sushi, topped with shrimp reports a lower 329 mg per 100 g but a higher 691 mg in USDA source amount (210 g).

Record identity is part of the estimate

Distinguish “Sushi roll, shrimp” from “Sushi, topped with egg”

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.
