Cereal or granola bar (Kashi Chewy) has about 304 calories per 1 bar in the cited USDA reference record. Use the portion controls and preparation factors below to interpret the estimate.
What this number means
A 1 bar weighing 78 grams has about 304 calories in the cited source record.
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.

Inside the source record
USDA links this survey-food entry to one source input used to calculate the reference nutrition. Publishing those inputs makes the record easier to inspect and helps explain why two similarly named foods can have different values.
How to read this
Snacks, granola bar, KASHI GOLEAN, chewy, mixed flavors 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.
100 g total listed input weight across the formulation.

Exact-record context
FoodData Central can publish several records with similar names but different source identities, formulations, portions, or nutrient values. This check uses exact records from the same USDA survey-food category and compares nutrients per 100 grams so serving size does not create the difference.

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.

Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 78 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 bar (78 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 35 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 bar (35 g).
Use the 100-gram table for composition. Use the household measures to judge which source portion better resembles the amount you mean.
Evidence boundary: this is a comparison between two standardized USDA records. It does not measure your meal, prove that either recipe matches it, rank overall food quality, or show that a particular ingredient caused a nutrient difference.
What changes the estimate most?
Food estimates can be sensitive to portion weight, preparation, ingredient ratios, and additions that are difficult to judge from appearance alone.
piece or portion size
recipe or brand
fillings or frosting
added fats and sugars
How we estimated this
This profile uses FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). It reports the source serving, calculates the 100-gram comparison from the same record, and scales household portions by their listed gram weights.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” A separately listed 1 bar has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.

It does not reconstruct every possible recipe or infer your plate’s weight. Preparation and recipe differences belong in the uncertainty explanation, not hidden decimal places.
