The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 354 calories for 1 breast at 175 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 202 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 37.1 g protein, 0.4 g fiber, and 795 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin eaten, from raw, representing 80% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 3 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 breast at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 57–444 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2705969: “Chicken breast, grilled with sauce, skin eaten.” 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 2705969, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 oz, cooked” through “1 breast quarter (yield after cooking, bone removed)” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 oz, cookedUSDA-listed household measure | 28.4 g | 57 kcal | 6 g | 0.1 g | 129 mg |
| 1 medium breastUSDA-listed household measure | 175 g | 354 kcal | 37.1 g | 0.4 g | 795 mg |
| 1 breast quarter (yield after cooking, bone removed)USDA-listed household measure | 220 g | 444 kcal | 46.6 g | 0.4 g | 999 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2705969’s 175 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Potassium; 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 “Chicken breast, grilled with sauce, skin eaten,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2705967 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 oz, cooked to 1 breast quarter (yield after cooking, bone removed)
USDA assigns those measures 28.4 g and 220 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 57 kcal to 444 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2705967
At an equal 100 g, this record has 7.3 g more carbohydrate than “Chicken breast, grilled without sauce, skin eaten.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin eaten, from raw
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin eaten, from raw supplies 80% 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 “grilled with sauce; skin eaten” fits. Inspect FDC 2705967 when “grilled without sauce; skin eaten” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

USDA shorthand in this evidence
- NFS means “not further specified.” The record intentionally leaves the exact subtype, size, or preparation unresolved.
- NS as to… means “not specified as to…” the detail that follows. It preserves an unknown distinction; it does not mean the ingredient or characteristic is absent.
Exact-record context
What makes this USDA record distinct?
For FDC 2705969, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Chicken, whole pieces” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.

Only this record lists Sauce, barbecue. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
4 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: Chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin eaten, from raw; Vegetable oil, NFS.
Listed only in this record: Sauce, barbecue.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 175 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 breast (175 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 130 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 breast (130 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2705969 with FDC 2705967 at equal mass; use their 175 g and 130 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2705969 versus FDC 2705967 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 portion size, cut and fat trim, cooking method, breading, marinade, or sauce.
For “Chicken breast, grilled with sauce, skin eaten,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
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
cut and fat trim
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
- 03
cooking method
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
- 04
breading, marinade, or sauce
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 2705969 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 202 kcal per 100 g becomes 354 kcal at 175 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 breast 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: 2705969
FNDDS food code: 24123310
The scaling for FDC 2705969 can be exact while the match to “Chicken breast, grilled with sauce, skin eaten” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 175 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
