The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 185 calories for USDA reference amount at 70 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 264 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 16.2 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 335 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is chicken, broilers or fryers, wing, meat and skin, cooked, roasted, representing 97% 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 reference amount and 1 wing 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 58–185 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 2706059: “Chicken wing, baked or broiled, from fast food / restaurant.” 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 2706059, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 drummette” through “USDA reference amount” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 drummetteUSDA-listed household measure | 22 g | 58 kcal | 5.1 g | 0 g | 105 mg |
| 1 wingUSDA-listed household measure | 35 g | 92 kcal | 8.1 g | 0 g | 167 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 70 g | 185 kcal | 16.2 g | 0 g | 335 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Chicken, whole pieces
The comparison set contains 125 exact records in the Chicken, whole pieces USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2706059’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2706059’s 70 g reference weight, none of the compatible strength-side nutrients evaluated here reaches 5% Daily Value; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Saturated fat. 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
No compatible strength-side nutrient evaluated here reaches 5% DV at this reference weight, so this page does not manufacture a “strength” from a negligible percentage.
Tradeoff-side signals
Saturated fat3.6 g
≈ 18% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium335 mg
≈ 15% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Chicken wing, baked or broiled, from fast food / restaurant,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2705959 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 drummette to 1 wing
USDA assigns those measures 22 g and 35 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 58 kcal to 92 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2705959
At an equal 100 g, this record has 7.8 g more total fat than “Chicken breast, baked or broiled, skin eaten, from fast food / restaurant.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Chicken, broilers or fryers, wing, meat and skin, cooked, roasted
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Chicken, broilers or fryers, wing, meat and skin, cooked, roasted supplies 97% 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 “baked or broiled; from fast food / restaurant” fits. Inspect FDC 2705959 when “baked or broiled; skin eaten; from fast food / restaurant” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 58 more calories, 2.6 g less protein, and 7.8 g more total fat than “Chicken breast, baked or broiled, skin eaten, from fast food / restaurant.”
Only this record lists Chicken, broilers or fryers, wing, meat and skin, cooked, roasted. Only the comparison record lists Chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin eaten, from raw. 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: Salt, table; Vegetable oil, NFS.
Listed only in this record: Chicken, broilers or fryers, wing, meat and skin, cooked, roasted.
Listed only in the comparison: Chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin eaten, from raw.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 70 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 wing (35 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 2706059 with FDC 2705959 at equal mass; use their 70 g and 130 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2706059 versus FDC 2705959 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 restaurant formulation and serving size, portion size, cut and fat trim, cooking method.
For “Chicken wing, baked or broiled, from fast food / restaurant,” resolve restaurant formulation and serving size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
restaurant formulation and serving 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
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.
- 03
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.
- 04
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.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2706059 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 264 kcal per 100 g becomes 185 kcal at 70 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: 2706059
FNDDS food code: 24162150
The scaling for FDC 2706059 can be exact while the match to “Chicken wing, baked or broiled, from fast food / restaurant” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 70 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
