The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 179 calories for USDA reference amount at 131 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 137 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 16.8 g protein, 0.4 g fiber, and 525 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is eggs, grade a, large, egg whole, representing 38% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 12 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.

The reference amount and 1 cup answer different portion questions. Their values are scaled independently from the same per-100-gram source record.

The household measures attached to this record span roughly 118–240 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 2707194: “Chicken egg foo yung.” 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 2707194, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 patty” through “1 cup” 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 2707194’s 131 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.

Strength-side signals

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Chicken egg foo yung,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707195 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Listed portion span: 1 patty to 1 cup

    USDA assigns those measures 86 g and 175 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 118 kcal to 240 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2707195

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 76 mg more sodium than “Pork egg foo yung.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole

    The source formulation has 12 input rows; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole supplies 38% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

05 · Exact-record choice

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 2707194, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Stir-fry and soy-based sauce mixtures” 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.

Plain-English read

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 12 less calories and 76 mg more sodium than “Pork egg foo yung.”

Only this record lists Chicken, NS as to part, rotisserie, skin not eaten. Only the comparison record lists Pork, fresh, loin, whole, separable lean only, cooked, roasted. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.

2 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: Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole; Salt, table; Onions, spring or scallions (includes tops and bulb), raw; Vegetable oil, NFS; and 7 more.

Listed only in this record: Chicken, NS as to part, rotisserie, skin not eaten.

Listed only in the comparison: Pork, fresh, loin, whole, separable lean only, cooked, roasted.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets match

This record’s reference amount is 131 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (175 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 131 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (175 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707194 with FDC 2707195 at equal mass; use their 131 g and 131 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2707194 versus FDC 2707195 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 amount served, recipe and ingredient ratios, added cooking fat, sauces and toppings.

For “Chicken egg foo yung,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 01

    amount served

    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 and ingredient ratios

    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

    added cooking fat

    Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.

  4. 04

    sauces and toppings

    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 2707194 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 137 kcal per 100 g becomes 179 kcal at 131 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.” We display it as a USDA reference amount because it is a database comparison point—not a suggested portion or a claim about what most people should eat.

Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024

FoodData Central ID: 2707194

FNDDS food code: 32105210

The scaling for FDC 2707194 can be exact while the match to “Chicken egg foo yung” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 131 g weight, 12-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
