The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 114 calories for USDA reference amount at 93 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 123 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 1.8 g protein, 1.8 g fiber, and 274 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is broccoli, raw, representing 64.1% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 5 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 114–229 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 2709813: “Broccoli slaw salad.” 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 2709813, 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 | 69.8 g | 86 kcal | 1.4 g | 1.3 g | 206 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 93 g | 114 kcal | 1.8 g | 1.8 g | 274 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 186 g | 229 kcal | 3.7 g | 3.5 g | 549 mg |

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Broccoli slaw salad,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709812 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 93 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 69.8–116.3 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 86 kcal and 143 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2709812
At an equal 100 g, this record has 3.9 g less protein than “Broccoli salad with cauliflower, cheese, bacon bits, and dressing.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Broccoli, raw
The source formulation has 5 input rows; Broccoli, raw supplies 64.1% 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 the exact wording “Broccoli slaw salad” fits. Inspect FDC 2709812 when “cheese; bacon bits; and dressing” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

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: Broccoli, raw; Onions, raw.
Listed only in this record: Carrots, mature, raw; Salad dressing, coleslaw; Salt, table.
Listed only in the comparison: Cauliflower, raw; Cheese, cheddar; Bacon bits, meatless; Salad dressing, mayonnaise, regular; and 2 more.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 93 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (186 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 77 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (154 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2709813 with FDC 2709812 at equal mass; use their 93 g and 77 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2709813 versus FDC 2709812 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 portion size, raw versus cooked weight, cooking method, added fat or sauce.
For “Broccoli slaw salad,” 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
raw versus cooked weight
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.
- 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
added fat or sauce
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 2709813 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 123 kcal per 100 g becomes 114 kcal at 93 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: 2709813
FNDDS food code: 75140510
The scaling for FDC 2709813 can be exact while the match to “Broccoli slaw salad” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 93 g weight, 5-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
