The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 77 calories for USDA reference amount at 93 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 83 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 2.6 g protein, 4 g fiber, and 152 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is vegetables, mixed, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt, representing 96.8% 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 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 77–154 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 2710019: “Classic mixed vegetables, frozen, cooked with butter or margarine.” 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 2710019, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Record-specific answers
Common questions about this exact entry
These answers resolve landing-page questions for “Classic mixed vegetables, frozen, cooked with butter or margarine” using FDC 2710019, its 93 g reference, and its named source neighbors.
How many calories are in one cup of these mixed vegetables?
Both 77 and 154 calories can be correct for this record because they answer different portion questions. The short answer uses USDA’s 93-gram reference amount; the listed one-cup measure weighs 185 grams and scales to about 154 calories. The recipe is held constant while the weight nearly doubles.
How does this compare with the no-added-fat record?
Hold weight constant before interpreting the difference. Per 100 grams, this butter-or-margarine record lists 83 calories and 2.33 grams of fat; the cooked, no-added-fat record lists 65 calories and 0.15 grams of fat. The formulation evidence is consistent with distinct records—the current one lists “Table fat, NFS”—but it does not turn the comparison into a controlled experiment.
Should I use the butter-or-margarine record or the oil record?
Use the fat you have evidence for; do not average the two records when the fat is unknown. The oil record lists 89 calories per 100 grams and this butter-or-margarine record lists 83, but that six-calorie separation belongs to two standardized formulations. It does not establish a universal oil-versus-butter rule.
What matters most when choosing a mixed-vegetable entry?
Read the description in four passes: frozen or canned; cooking fat; salt or reduced-sodium treatment; then grams eaten. Those details discriminate among the nearby records. The umbrella phrase “mixed vegetables” does not.
FDC 2710019 and the neighboring IDs above are standardized records. Their differences do not measure an individual meal or isolate a single ingredient as the cause.

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, raw versus cooked weight, cooking method, added fat or sauce.
For “Classic mixed vegetables, frozen, cooked with butter or margarine,” 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
raw versus cooked weight
Match the food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.
- 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
added fat or sauce
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2710019 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 83 kcal per 100 g becomes 77 kcal at 93 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: 2710019
FNDDS food code: 75311028
The scaling for FDC 2710019 can be exact while the match to “Classic mixed vegetables, frozen, cooked with butter or margarine” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 93 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
