The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 212 calories for USDA reference amount at 113 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 188 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 15.6 g protein, 0.5 g fiber, and 594 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 49.8% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 5 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 212–425 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 2706805: “Chicken or turkey salad, made with creamy dressing.” 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 2706805, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 cup” 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 | 84.8 g | 159 kcal | 11.7 g | 0.3 g | 446 mg |

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Chicken or turkey salad, made with creamy dressing,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706806 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 113 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 84.8–141.3 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 159 kcal and 266 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2706806
At an equal 100 g, this record has 6.7 g more total fat than “Chicken or turkey salad, made with light creamy dressing.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Chicken, NS as to part, rotisserie, skin not eaten
The source formulation has 5 input rows; Chicken, NS as to part, rotisserie, skin not eaten supplies 49.8% 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 “made with creamy dressing” fits. Inspect FDC 2706806 when “made with light creamy dressing” 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 portion size, cut and fat trim, cooking method, breading, marinade, or sauce.
For “Chicken or turkey salad, made with creamy dressing,” 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 2706805 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 188 kcal per 100 g becomes 212 kcal at 113 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: 2706805
FNDDS food code: 27446240
The scaling for FDC 2706805 can be exact while the match to “Chicken or turkey salad, made with creamy dressing” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 113 g weight, 5-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
