The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 177 calories for USDA reference amount at 100 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 177 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 3.1 g protein, 0.9 g fiber, and 471 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beverages, water, tap, municipal, representing 63.6% 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, 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 18–404 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 2707687: “Bread stuffing.” 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 2707687, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 cubic inch” through “1 cup, dry mix, prepared” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 cubic inchUSDA-listed household measure | 10 g | 18 kcal | 0.3 g | 0.1 g | 47 mg |
| 1 cup, NFSUSDA-listed household measure | 200 g | 354 kcal | 6.3 g | 1.8 g | 942 mg |
| 1 cup, dry mix, preparedUSDA-listed household measure | 228 g | 404 kcal | 7.2 g | 2.1 g | 1,074 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2707687’s 100 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin A; 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 A77 µg
≈ 9% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Iron1 mg
≈ 6% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Bread stuffing,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707688 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 cubic inch to 1 cup, dry mix, prepared
USDA assigns those measures 10 g and 228 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 18 kcal to 404 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707688
At an equal 100 g, this record has 3.4 g less total fat than “Bread stuffing made with egg.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Beverages, water, tap, municipal
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Beverages, water, tap, municipal supplies 63.6% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 15 less calories, 3.9 g more carbohydrate, and 3.4 g less total fat than “Bread stuffing made with egg.”
Only this record lists Bread, stuffing, dry mix; Beverages, water, tap, municipal; Margarine, stick. Only the comparison record lists Bread, stuffing, dry mix, prepared; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole. 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.
Listed only in this record: Bread, stuffing, dry mix; Beverages, water, tap, municipal; Margarine, stick.
Listed only in the comparison: Bread, stuffing, dry mix, prepared; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 100 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup, NFS (200 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 85 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (170 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707687 with FDC 2707688 at equal mass; use their 100 g and 85 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707687 versus FDC 2707688 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 piece or portion size, recipe or brand, fillings or frosting, added fats and sugars.
For “Bread stuffing,” resolve piece or portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
piece or 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
recipe or brand
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
fillings or frosting
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
- 04
added fats and sugars
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2707687 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 177 kcal per 100 g becomes 177 kcal at 100 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: 2707687
FNDDS food code: 51182010
The scaling for FDC 2707687 can be exact while the match to “Bread stuffing” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 100 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
