Cereal or granola bar (Quaker Granola Bites) calories: 90 per 1 pouch (20 g)
This exact USDA record reports 90 calories for 1 pouch (20 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 90 calories for 1 pouch at 20 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 451 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 1.4 g protein, 1.1 g fiber, and 33 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 bites, mixed flavors, 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 pouch 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 2708099: “Cereal or granola bar (Quaker Granola Bites).” 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 2708099, 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 | 15 g | 68 kcal | 1.1 g | 0.9 g | 25 mg |
| 1 pouchUSDA-listed household measure | 20 g | 90 kcal | 1.4 g | 1.1 g | 33 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 25 g | 113 kcal | 1.8 g | 1.4 g | 42 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2708099’s 20 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 fat2 g
≈ 10% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium33 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 “Cereal or granola bar (Quaker Granola Bites),” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708095 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 20 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 15–25 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 68 kcal and 113 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2708095
At an equal 100 g, this record has 124 mg less sodium than “Cereal or granola bar (Quaker Chewy Granola Bar).” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Single listed source: Snacks, granola bites, mixed flavors
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 the exact wording “Cereal or granola bar (Quaker Granola Bites)” fits. Inspect FDC 2708095 when the exact wording “Cereal or granola bar (Quaker Chewy Granola Bar)” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

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: Snacks, granola bites, mixed flavors.
Listed only in the comparison: Snacks, granola bars, soft, uncoated, chocolate chip.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 20 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 pouch (20 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 24 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 bar (24 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2708099 with FDC 2708095 at equal mass; use their 20 g and 24 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2708099 versus FDC 2708095 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 piece or portion size, recipe or brand, fillings or frosting, added fats and sugars.
For “Cereal or granola bar (Quaker Granola Bites),” 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 2708099 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 451 kcal per 100 g becomes 90 kcal at 20 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: 2708099
FNDDS food code: 53711100
The scaling for FDC 2708099 can be exact while the match to “Cereal or granola bar (Quaker Granola Bites)” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 20 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
