The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 401 calories for USDA reference amount at 311 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 129 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 20.6 g protein, 3.4 g fiber, and 964 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is noodles, egg, enriched, cooked, representing 39.3% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 8 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 321–401 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 2706613: “Beef, noodles, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; mushroom 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 2706613, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “USDA reference amount” 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 | 233.3 g | 301 kcal | 15.5 g | 2.6 g | 723 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2706613’s 311 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Iron; 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 “Beef, noodles, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy…,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706606 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 311 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 233.3–388.8 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 301 kcal and 501 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2706606
At an equal 100 g, this record has 2.2 g less protein than “Beef, noodles, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked
The source formulation has 8 input rows; Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked supplies 39.3% 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 “noodles; and vegetables excluding carrots; broccoli; and dark-green leafy” fits. Inspect FDC 2706606 when “noodles; and vegetables excluding carrots; broccoli; and dark-green leafy” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 22 less calories, 2.2 g less protein, and 3.7 g less carbohydrate than “Beef, noodles, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no sauce.”
Only this record lists Soup, cream of mushroom, canned, condensed; Milk, NFS. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
3 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: Beef, round, top round steak, separable lean and fat, trimmed to 1/8" fat, all grades, cooked, broiled; Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked; Corn, sweet, yellow, frozen, kernels cut off cob, boiled, drained, without salt; Beans, snap, green, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained without salt; and 2 more.
Listed only in this record: Soup, cream of mushroom, canned, condensed; Milk, NFS.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 311 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (249 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 202 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (162 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706613 with FDC 2706606 at equal mass; use their 311 g and 202 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2706613 versus FDC 2706606 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 amount served, recipe and ingredient ratios, added cooking fat, sauces and toppings.
For “Beef, noodles, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; mushroom…,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 2706613 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 129 kcal per 100 g becomes 401 kcal at 311 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, noodles, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; mushroom sauce
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2706613
FNDDS food code: 27313320
The scaling for FDC 2706613 can be exact while the match to “Beef, noodles, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; mushroom sauce” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 311 g weight, 8-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
