The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 164 calories for USDA reference amount at 92 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 178 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 7.9 g protein, 9 g fiber, and 179 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beans, black, mature seeds, canned, low sodium, representing 96.3% 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 164–329 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
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2707364: “Black beans, from canned, 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
For FDC 2707364, 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 | 69 g | 123 kcal | 5.9 g | 6.8 g | 135 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 92 g | 164 kcal | 7.9 g | 9 g | 179 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 185 g | 329 kcal | 15.8 g | 18.1 g | 361 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 60 exact records in the Beans, peas, legumes USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2707364’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2707364’s 92 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.
Dietary fiber9 g
≈ 32% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Iron2 mg
≈ 14% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium179 mg
≈ 8% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat0.8 g
≈ 4% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Black beans, from canned, reduced sodium,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707358 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 69–115 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 123 kcal and 205 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 2.9 g more dietary fiber than “White beans, from canned, reduced sodium.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Beans, black, mature seeds, canned, low sodium supplies 96.3% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

Uncertainty, made actionable
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 “Black beans, from canned, 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.
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
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.
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
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
FDC 2707364 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 178 kcal per 100 g becomes 164 kcal at 92 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
