Beef, prepackaged or deli, luncheon meat, reduced sodium calories: 64 per 56 g
This exact USDA record reports 64 calories for 56 g. That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 64 calories for USDA reference amount at 56 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 115 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 10.4 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 358 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is reduced sodium: roast beef, deli style, prepackaged, sliced, representing 100% of the record’s listed input weight. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The reference amount and 1 slice, NFS 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 32–161 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 2706219: “Beef, prepackaged or deli, luncheon meat, reduced sodium.” 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 2706219, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 slice, NFS” through “1 cup, pieces” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 slice, NFSUSDA-listed household measure | 28 g | 32 kcal | 5.2 g | 0 g | 179 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 56 g | 64 kcal | 10.4 g | 0 g | 358 mg |

The comparison set contains 13 exact records in the Cold cuts and cured meats USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2706219’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 2706219’s 56 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Potassium; 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, prepackaged or deli, luncheon meat, reduced sodium,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706209 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 slice, NFS to 1 cup, pieces
USDA assigns those measures 28 g and 140 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 32 kcal to 161 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2706209
At an equal 100 g, this record has 2.3 g less carbohydrate than “Chicken, prepackaged or deli, luncheon meat, reduced sodium.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Single listed source: REDUCED SODIUM: Roast beef, deli style, prepackaged, sliced
USDA derives this record from one listed source-input row at 100 g. Real preparations can still differ in water, cooking state, brand, and served weight.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when “prepackaged or deli; luncheon meat; reduced sodium” fits. Inspect FDC 2706209 when “prepackaged or deli; luncheon meat; reduced sodium” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 17 more calories, 2.3 g less carbohydrate, and 1.8 g more total fat than “Chicken, prepackaged or deli, luncheon meat, reduced sodium.”
Only this record lists REDUCED SODIUM: Roast beef, deli style, prepackaged, sliced. Only the comparison record lists REDUCED SODIUM: Chicken breast, deli, rotisserie seasoned, sliced, prepackaged. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
4 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence

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, cut and fat trim, cooking method, breading, marinade, or sauce.
For “Beef, prepackaged or deli, luncheon meat, reduced sodium,” 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
cut and fat trim
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
- 03
cooking method
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.
- 04
breading, marinade, or sauce
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 2706219 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 115 kcal per 100 g becomes 64 kcal at 56 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: 2706219
FNDDS food code: 25231120
The scaling for FDC 2706219 can be exact while the match to “Beef, prepackaged or deli, luncheon meat, reduced sodium” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 56 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
