The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 179 calories for USDA reference amount at 130 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 138 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 8.8 g protein, 4.3 g fiber, and 569 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beans, baked, canned, with pork and sweet sauce, representing 75% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 3 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 179–359 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 2707405: “Beans and franks.” 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 2707405, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 97.5 g | 135 kcal | 6.6 g | 3.2 g | 427 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 130 g | 179 kcal | 8.8 g | 4.3 g | 569 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 260 g | 359 kcal | 17.5 g | 8.6 g | 1,139 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2707405’s 130 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Dietary fiber; 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 “Beans and franks,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707390 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 130 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 97.5–162.5 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 135 kcal and 224 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707390
At an equal 100 g, this record has 4.3 g more total fat than “Baked beans.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Beans, baked, canned, with pork and sweet sauce
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Beans, baked, canned, with pork and sweet sauce supplies 75% 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
Keep this record when the exact wording “Beans and franks” fits. Inspect FDC 2707390 when the exact wording “Baked beans” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 33 more calories, 2.2 g more protein, and 4.3 g less carbohydrate than “Baked beans.”
Only this record lists Frankfurter, low sodium; Frankfurter, meat and poultry, low fat. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
5 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
The listed formulations differ
The formulation rows differ, but the source data do not isolate which component caused any nutrient difference. Input weights describe the standardized formulation—not final plated proportions.
Shared listed inputs: Beans, baked, canned, with pork and sweet sauce.
Listed only in this record: Frankfurter, low sodium; Frankfurter, meat and poultry, low fat.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets match
This record’s reference amount is 130 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (260 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 130 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (260 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707405 with FDC 2707390 at equal mass; use their 130 g and 130 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707405 versus FDC 2707390 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 portion size, preparation, added fat, sauce or seasoning.
For “Beans and franks,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
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
preparation
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
- 03
added fat
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
- 04
sauce or seasoning
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2707405 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 138 kcal per 100 g becomes 179 kcal at 130 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: 2707405
FNDDS food code: 41206030
The scaling for FDC 2707405 can be exact while the match to “Beans and franks” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 130 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
