Cereal or granola bar, coated with non-chocolate coating calories: 142 per 1 bar (28 g)
This exact USDA record reports 142 calories for 1 bar (28 g). That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 142 calories for 1 bar at 28 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 508 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 2.9 g protein, 0.8 g fiber, and 54 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is snacks, granola bars, soft, coated, milk chocolate coating, peanut butter, 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 bar 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 2708111: “Cereal or granola bar, coated with non-chocolate coating.” 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 2708111, 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 | 21 g | 107 kcal | 2.1 g | 0.6 g | 41 mg |
| 1 barUSDA-listed household measure | 28 g | 142 kcal | 2.9 g | 0.8 g | 54 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 35 g | 178 kcal | 3.6 g | 1 g | 68 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context

The comparison set contains 28 exact records in the Cereal bars USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2708111’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 2708111’s 28 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 fat4.8 g
≈ 24% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium54 mg
≈ 2% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Cereal or granola bar, coated with non-chocolate coating,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708110 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 28 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 21–35 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 107 kcal and 178 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2708110
At an equal 100 g, this record has 293 mg less sodium than “Cereal or granola bar, oats, nuts, coated with non-chocolate coating.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Single listed source: Snacks, granola bars, soft, coated, milk chocolate coating, peanut butter
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
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when “coated with non-chocolate coating” fits. Inspect FDC 2708110 when “oats; nuts; coated with non-chocolate coating” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

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 “Cereal or granola bar, coated with non-chocolate coating,” 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 2708111 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 508 kcal per 100 g becomes 142 kcal at 28 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 bar 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: 2708111
FNDDS food code: 53714250
The scaling for FDC 2708111 can be exact while the match to “Cereal or granola bar, coated with non-chocolate coating” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 28 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
