The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 253 calories for 1 cup at 246 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 103 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 33.9 g protein, 2.7 g fiber, and 895 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is chicken, ns as to part, rotisserie, skin not eaten, representing 42.9% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 9 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 cup at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
Record-specific decision brief
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2706784: “Chicken or turkey creole, without rice.” 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
For FDC 2706784, 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 | 184.5 g | 190 kcal | 25.5 g | 2 g | 672 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 246 g | 253 kcal | 33.9 g | 2.7 g | 895 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 307.5 g | 317 kcal | 42.4 g | 3.4 g | 1,119 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 130 exact records in the Poultry mixed dishes USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2706784’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2706784’s 246 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; 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.
Vitamin C30 mg
≈ 33% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Potassium679 mg
≈ 14% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium895 mg
≈ 39% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat2.3 g
≈ 11% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Chicken or turkey creole, without rice,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706537 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 184.5–307.5 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 190 kcal and 317 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 14 g less carbohydrate than “Chicken or turkey and rice, no sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 9 input rows; Chicken, NS as to part, rotisserie, skin not eaten supplies 42.9% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Keep this record when “without rice” fits. Inspect FDC 2706537 when “no sauce” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Uncertainty, made actionable
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 or turkey creole, without rice,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
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.
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
FDC 2706784 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 103 kcal per 100 g becomes 253 kcal at 246 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 cup 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: 2706784
FNDDS food code: 27441120
The scaling for FDC 2706784 can be exact while the match to “Chicken or turkey creole, without rice” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 246 g weight, 9-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
