The editorial read

The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity

Portion: the cited record reports about 148 calories for 1 bar at 35 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 423 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 2 g protein, 1.5 g fiber, and 95 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 bar, general mills, nature valley, with yogurt coating, 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 2708092: “Cereal or granola bar, with yogurt coating (General Mills Nature Valley Chewy Granola Bar).” 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 2708092, 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.

03 · FDA label lens

The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals

At FDC 2708092’s 35 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin A; 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Cereal or granola bar, with yogurt coating (General Mills Nature Valley Chewy…,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708091 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Portion sensitivity around 35 g

    A 25% weight move in either direction spans 26.3–43.8 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 111 kcal and 185 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2708091

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 86 mg more sodium than “Cereal or granola bar (General Mills Nature Valley Chewy Trail Mix).” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Single listed source: Snacks, granola bar, GENERAL MILLS, NATURE VALLEY, with yogurt coating

    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 “with yogurt coating (General Mills Nature Valley Chewy Granola Bar)” fits. Inspect FDC 2708091 when the exact wording “Cereal or granola bar (General Mills Nature Valley Chewy Trail Mix)” 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, with yogurt coating (General Mills Nature Valley Chewy Granola Bar),” 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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 2708092 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 423 kcal per 100 g becomes 148 kcal at 35 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: 2708092

FNDDS food code: 53710902

The scaling for FDC 2708092 can be exact while the match to “Cereal or granola bar, with yogurt coating (General Mills Nature Valley Chewy Granola Bar)” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 35 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
