The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 94 calories for USDA reference amount at 125 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 75 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 0.3 g protein, 1.3 g fiber, and 1 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is applesauce, unsweetened, with added vitamin c, representing 93.5% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 2 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The reference amount and 1 cup answer different portion questions. Their values are scaled independently from the same per-100-gram source record.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 68–188 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2709216: “Applesauce, regular.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2709216, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 pouch” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 pouchUSDA-listed household measure | 90 g | 68 kcal | 0.2 g | 0.9 g | 1 mg |
| 1 snack size containerUSDA-listed household measure | 113 g | 85 kcal | 0.3 g | 1.1 g | 1 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 250 g | 188 kcal | 0.6 g | 2.5 g | 3 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Fruit
The comparison set contains 82 exact records in Feast’s broader Fruit category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2709216’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2709216’s 125 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Applesauce, regular,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709218 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 pouch to 1 cup
USDA assigns those measures 90 g and 250 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 68 kcal to 188 kcal.
- 02
Source identity: FDC 2709216 versus 2709218
The closest published neighbor currently carries the same nutrient, portion, and source-input evidence. The FDC IDs still identify separate source records, so the exact citation remains the deciding field.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Applesauce, unsweetened, with added vitamin C
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Applesauce, unsweetened, with added vitamin C supplies 93.5% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
The published nutrient, portion, and formulation evidence is identical for this pair. Preserve FDC 2709216 when this is the cited source; do not manufacture a nutritional distinction that the records do not show.

Source-equivalent fields
Different source identities, matching published reference fields
Across the nutrient, portion, and formulation fields published here, FDC 2709216 and FDC 2709218 match exactly. Their descriptions and source identities remain distinct provenance; matching database fields do not make every real-world version interchangeable.
Practical reading: do not infer a nutrient difference from the names alone. Choose the description that more closely matches what was reported, while treating the shared values as a standardized reference rather than a measurement of your plate.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2709216 versus FDC 2709218 is a comparison of standardized source records—not a measurement of your meal, an overall food-quality rank, or proof that one input caused a difference.

Uncertainty, made actionable
What can change this estimate?
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with piece or portion size, variety and ripeness, fresh versus cooked form, added sweeteners.
For “Applesauce, regular,” resolve piece or portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
piece or portion size
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
- 02
variety and ripeness
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
fresh versus cooked form
Match the food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.
- 04
added sweeteners
Use a label or known recipe when available, because sweetness does not reveal dose. Keep syrups, sugars, and concentrated add-ins separate when the base record does not name them.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2709216 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 75 kcal per 100 g becomes 94 kcal at 125 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” We display it as a USDA reference amount because it is a database comparison point—not a suggested portion or a claim about what most people should eat.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2709216
FNDDS food code: 63101110
The scaling for FDC 2709216 can be exact while the match to “Applesauce, regular” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 125 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
