The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 57 calories for 1 medium or regular slice at 25 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 228 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 2.4 g protein, 3 g fiber, and 128 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber, representing 100% of the record’s listed input weight. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 medium or regular slice at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 21–89 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 2707727: “Bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber, toasted.” 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 2707727, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 slice, snack-size” through “1 large or thick slice” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 slice, snack-sizeUSDA-listed household measure | 9 g | 21 kcal | 0.9 g | 1.1 g | 46 mg |
| 1 medium or regular sliceUSDA-listed household measure | 25 g | 57 kcal | 2.4 g | 3 g | 128 mg |
| 1 large or thick sliceUSDA-listed household measure | 39 g | 89 kcal | 3.8 g | 4.6 g | 199 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 104 exact records in the Yeast breads USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2707727’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2707727’s 25 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 fiber3 g

04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber, toasted,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707726 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 9 g and 39 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 21 kcal to 89 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 21 kcal more calories than “Bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
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
Keep this record when “wheat or cracked wheat; reduced calorie and/or high fiber; toasted” fits. Inspect FDC 2707726 when “wheat or cracked wheat; reduced calorie and/or high fiber” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Inside the source record
USDA links FDC 2707727 to one source input totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber, toasted” inspectable beside similarly named records.
How to read this
Bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber is the only listed source input for this record. That does not mean every real-world version is identical; brands, preparation, water content, and portion weight can still differ.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 21 more calories than “Bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber.”
Only this record lists Bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber. Only the comparison record lists Bread, reduced-calorie, white; Wheat bran, crude. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
1 of the six displayed differences clears the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
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, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber.
Listed only in the comparison: Bread, reduced-calorie, white; Wheat bran, crude.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 25 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 medium or regular slice (25 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 28 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 medium or regular slice (28 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707727 with FDC 2707726 at equal mass; use their 25 g and 28 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707727 versus FDC 2707726 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
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with item size, recipe or brand, moisture and density, spreads or toppings.
For “Bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber, toasted,” resolve item 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.
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
Match the food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.
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 2707727 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 228 kcal per 100 g becomes 57 kcal at 25 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.” The separately listed 1 medium or regular slice has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024

FNDDS food code: 51301520
The scaling for FDC 2707727 can be exact while the match to “Bread, wheat or cracked wheat, reduced calorie and/or high fiber, toasted” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 25 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
