The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 299 calories for 1 piece at 100 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 299 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 2.5 g protein, 3.4 g fiber, and 1,180 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is cassava, raw, representing 98.4% 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 piece at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2709566: “Casabe, cassava bread.” 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 2709566, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “125% of the reference weight” 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 | 75 g | 224 kcal | 1.9 g | 2.6 g | 885 mg |
| 1 piece (6" dia)USDA-listed household measure | 100 g | 299 kcal | 2.5 g | 3.4 g | 1,180 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 125 g | 374 kcal | 3.2 g | 4.3 g | 1,475 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2709566’s 100 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; 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

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Casabe, cassava bread,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707848 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 100 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 75–125 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 224 kcal and 374 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707848
At an equal 100 g, this record has 19.6 g less total fat than “Bread, nut.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Cassava, raw
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Cassava, raw supplies 98.4% 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 “cassava bread” fits. Inspect FDC 2707848 when “nut” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 104 less calories, 4.1 g less protein, and 21.5 g more carbohydrate than “Bread, nut.”
Only this record lists Cassava, raw. Only the comparison record lists Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached; Leavening agents, baking powder, double-acting, sodium aluminum sulfate; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole; Milk, NFS. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
6 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: Salt, table.
Listed only in this record: Cassava, raw.
Listed only in the comparison: Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached; Leavening agents, baking powder, double-acting, sodium aluminum sulfate; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole; Milk, NFS; and 5 more.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 100 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 piece (100 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 49 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 slice (49 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2709566 with FDC 2707848 at equal mass; use their 100 g and 49 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2709566 versus FDC 2707848 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 item size, recipe or brand, moisture and density, spreads or toppings.
For “Casabe, cassava bread,” resolve item size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
item 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
moisture and density
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.
- 04
spreads or toppings
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
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2709566 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 299 kcal per 100 g becomes 299 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.” The separately listed 1 piece 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: 2709566
FNDDS food code: 71930200
The scaling for FDC 2709566 can be exact while the match to “Casabe, cassava bread” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 100 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
