The editorial read

The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity

Portion: the cited record reports about 235 calories for USDA reference amount at 163 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 144 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 19.1 g protein, 2 g fiber, and 406 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beef, round, top round steak, separable lean and fat, trimmed to 1/8" fat, all grades, cooked, broiled, representing 32.2% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 10 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 235–312 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 2706737: “Beef and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; no potatoes, soy-based sauce.” 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 2706737, 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.

03 · FDA label lens

The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals

At FDC 2706737’s 163 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.

Strength-side signals

Vitamin C24 mg

≈ 27% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

Vitamin A220.1 µg

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Beef and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; no…,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706603 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Portion sensitivity around 163 g

    A 25% weight move in either direction spans 122.3–203.8 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 176 kcal and 293 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2706603

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 1.3 g less carbohydrate than “Beef, potatoes, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; soy-based sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Beef, round, top round steak, separable lean and fat, trimmed to 1/8" fat, all grades, cooked, broiled

    The source formulation has 10 input rows; Beef, round, top round steak, separable lean and fat, trimmed to 1/8" fat, all grades, cooked, broiled supplies 32.2% 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 “broccoli; and/or dark-green leafy; no potatoes; soy-based sauce” fits. Inspect FDC 2706603 when “potatoes; and vegetables including carrots; broccoli; and/or dark-green leafy” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

USDA shorthand in this evidence
  • NFS means “not further specified.” The record intentionally leaves the exact subtype, size, or preparation unresolved.

Exact-record context

What makes this USDA record distinct?

For FDC 2706737, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Stir-fry and soy-based sauce mixtures” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.

Plain-English read

The six displayed nutrient values are close under a conservative materiality screen. Small differences remain exact source values, not evidence that one food is preferable.

Only the comparison record lists Potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.

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: Beef, round, top round steak, separable lean and fat, trimmed to 1/8" fat, all grades, cooked, broiled; Vegetable oil, NFS; Garlic, raw; Ginger root, raw; and 6 more.

Listed only in the comparison: Potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 163 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (217 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 189 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (252 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706737 with FDC 2706603 at equal mass; use their 163 g and 189 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2706737 versus FDC 2706603 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.

FDC 2706737 appears in 2 pair pages that passed semantic, material-difference, source-evidence, and diversity gates. Each preserves a 100-gram denominator and both primary records.

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 amount served, recipe and ingredient ratios, added cooking fat, sauces and toppings.

For “Beef and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; no potatoes…,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 01

    amount served

    When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.

  2. 02

    recipe and ingredient ratios

    Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.

  3. 03

    added cooking 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.

  4. 04

    sauces and toppings

    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 2706737 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 144 kcal per 100 g becomes 235 kcal at 163 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.

Exact USDA description: Beef and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; no potatoes, soy-based sauce

Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024

FoodData Central ID: 2706737

FNDDS food code: 27415100

The scaling for FDC 2706737 can be exact while the match to “Beef and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; no potatoes, soy-based sauce” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 163 g weight, 10-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
