The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 100 calories for USDA reference amount at 372 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 27 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 0.5 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 26 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beverages, water, tap, drinking, representing 93.8% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 4 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 8–100 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
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2710461: “Coffee, decaffeinated, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened with sugar.” 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 2710461, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 fl oz” 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 fl ozUSDA-listed household measure | 31 g | 8 kcal | 0 g | 0 g | 2 mg |
| 1 cup (8 fl oz)USDA-listed household measure | 248 g | 67 kcal | 0.3 g | 0 g | 17 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 372 g | 100 kcal | 0.5 g | 0 g | 26 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 106 exact records in the Coffee USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2710461’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2710461’s 372 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.
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.
Saturated fat1.5 g
≈ 7% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium26 mg
≈ 1% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Coffee, decaffeinated, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened with sugar,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2710467 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 31 g and 248 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 8 kcal to 67 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 11 kcal more calories than “Coffee, decaffeinated, pre-sweetened with sugar.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 4 input rows; Beverages, water, tap, drinking supplies 93.8% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Keep this record when “decaffeinated; pre-lightened and pre-sweetened with sugar” fits. Inspect FDC 2710467 when “decaffeinated; pre-sweetened with sugar” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

How to compare FDC 2710461: its source amount is 372 g; every 100-gram column removes portion size from the record-to-record comparison. Neither denominator determines your plate’s weight or recipe.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 11 more calories than “Coffee, decaffeinated, pre-sweetened with sugar.”
Only this record lists Cream substitute, powdered. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
1 of the six displayed differences clears the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
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: Beverages, coffee, instant, decaffeinated, powder; Beverages, water, tap, drinking; Sugars, granulated.
Listed only in this record: Cream substitute, powdered.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 372 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (248 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 372 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (248 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2710461 with FDC 2710467 at equal mass; use their 372 g and 372 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2710461 versus FDC 2710467 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
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with amount and type of sweetener, drink size, recipe or formulation, milk or cream.
For “Coffee, decaffeinated, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened with sugar,” resolve amount and type of sweetener first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
Use a label or known recipe when available, because sweetness does not reveal dose. Keep syrups, sugars, and concentrated add-ins separate when the base record does not name them.
Resolve drink size only when the meal or its source gives you evidence. If it is unknown, leave the uncertainty visible instead of choosing the most convenient variant.
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
Identify the liquid base and fat level when you can. Dairy, plant-based beverages, cream, and water are different record choices—not interchangeable volume adjustments.
How we estimated this
FDC 2710461 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 27 kcal per 100 g becomes 100 kcal at 372 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: 2710461
FNDDS food code: 92130001
The scaling for FDC 2710461 can be exact while the match to “Coffee, decaffeinated, pre-lightened and pre-sweetened with sugar” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 372 g weight, 4-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
