The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 160 calories for 1 cup at 154 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 104 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 20 g protein, 1.2 g fiber, and 533 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 11 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.

The household measures attached to this record span roughly 160–210 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 2706783: “Chicken or turkey shish kabob with vegetables, excluding potatoes.” 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 2706783, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 shishkabob” 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 2706783’s 154 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Chicken or turkey shish kabob with vegetables, excluding potatoes,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706668 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Listed portion span: 1 cup to 1 shishkabob

    USDA assigns those measures 154 g and 202 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 160 kcal to 210 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2706668

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 9.7 g less carbohydrate than “Chicken or turkey, potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Chicken, NS as to part, rotisserie, skin not eaten

    The source formulation has 11 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

Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name

Keep this record when “excluding potatoes” fits. Inspect FDC 2706668 when “potatoes; and vegetables excluding carrots; broccoli; and dark-green leafy” 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 2706783, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Poultry mixed dishes” 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 28 less calories, 6.8 g more protein, and 9.7 g less carbohydrate than “Chicken or turkey, potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green….”

Only this record lists Lime juice, raw; Soy sauce made from soy and wheat (shoyu); Parsley, fresh; Coriander (cilantro) leaves, raw. Only the comparison record lists Potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt; Corn, sweet, yellow, frozen, kernels cut off cob, boiled, drained, without salt; Beans, snap, green, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained without salt. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.

5 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: Vegetable oil, NFS; Salt, table; Chicken, NS as to part, rotisserie, skin not eaten.

Listed only in this record: Lime juice, raw; Soy sauce made from soy and wheat (shoyu); Parsley, fresh; Coriander (cilantro) leaves, raw; and 4 more.

Listed only in the comparison: Potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt; Corn, sweet, yellow, frozen, kernels cut off cob, boiled, drained, without salt; Beans, snap, green, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained without salt.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 154 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (154 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 162 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (162 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706783 with FDC 2706668 at equal mass; use their 154 g and 162 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2706783 versus FDC 2706668 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 or turkey shish kabob with vegetables, excluding potatoes,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 2706783 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 104 kcal per 100 g becomes 160 kcal at 154 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: 2706783

FNDDS food code: 27440130

The scaling for FDC 2706783 can be exact while the match to “Chicken or turkey shish kabob with vegetables, excluding potatoes” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 154 g weight, 11-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
