The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 240 calories for 1 pouch at 60 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 400 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 0.1 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 16 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is candies, hard, representing 50% 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 source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 pouch 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 8–960 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 2710364: “Candy, fruit flavored pieces.” 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 2710364, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 piece” through “1 sharing/movie theater size” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 pieceUSDA-listed household measure | 2 g | 8 kcal | 0 g | 0 g | 1 mg |
| 1 pouch/regular sizeUSDA-listed household measure | 60 g | 240 kcal | 0.1 g | 0 g | 16 mg |
| 1 sharing/movie theater sizeUSDA-listed household measure | 240 g | 960 kcal | 0.2 g | 0 g | 62 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Candy not containing chocolate
The comparison set contains 9 exact records in the Candy not containing chocolate USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2710364’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 2710364’s 60 g reference weight, none of the compatible strength-side nutrients evaluated here reaches 5% Daily Value; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Saturated fat. 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
No compatible strength-side nutrient evaluated here reaches 5% DV at this reference weight, so this page does not manufacture a “strength” from a negligible percentage.
Tradeoff-side signals
Saturated fat1.2 g
≈ 6% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium16 mg
≈ 1% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Candy, fruit flavored pieces,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2710367 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 piece to 1 sharing/movie theater size
USDA assigns those measures 2 g and 240 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 8 kcal to 960 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2710367
At an equal 100 g, this record has 291 mg less sodium than “Candy, fruit snacks.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Candies, hard
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Candies, hard supplies 50% 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 “fruit flavored pieces” fits. Inspect FDC 2710367 when “fruit snacks” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

2 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: Candies, hard; Candies, MARS SNACKFOOD US, SKITTLES Original Bite Size Candies.
Listed only in the comparison: Snacks, fruit leather, rolls.

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 “Candy, fruit flavored pieces,” 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 2710364 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 400 kcal per 100 g becomes 240 kcal at 60 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 pouch has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2710364
FNDDS food code: 91745110
The scaling for FDC 2710364 can be exact while the match to “Candy, fruit flavored pieces” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 60 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
