The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 271 calories for USDA reference amount at 165 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 164 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 14.4 g protein, 1.8 g fiber, and 680 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beef, corned beef hash, with potato, canned, representing 100% of the record’s listed input weight. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.

The reference amount and 1 cup, homemade 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 271–1,174 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 2706477: “Corned beef hash.” 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 2706477, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 cup, homemade” through “1 large can” 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 2706477’s 165 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Iron; 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

Iron2 mg

≈ 9% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

Dietary fiber1.8 g

≈ 6% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Corned beef hash,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706502 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Listed portion span: 1 cup, homemade to 1 large can

    USDA assigns those measures 190 g and 716 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 312 kcal to 1,174 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2706502

    At an equal 100 g, this record has calories than “Corned beef patty.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Single listed source: Beef, corned beef hash, with potato, canned

    USDA derives this record from one listed source-input row at 100 g. Real preparations can still differ in water, cooking state, brand, and served weight.

05 · Exact-record choice

Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name

Keep this record when the exact wording “Corned beef hash” fits. Inspect FDC 2706502 when the exact wording “Corned beef patty” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

The percentages above apply to FDC 2706477’s 165 g reference amount. FDA Daily Values are general label references, not individualized energy or medical targets. Read the FDA explanation ↗

Why FDC 2706477 has no protein percentage here: Feast reports 14.4 g, but does not present grams divided by 50 as FDA protein %DV; applicable label rules account for protein quality and regulatory context.

Inside the source record

Source formulation behind this USDA record

USDA links FDC 2706477 to one source input totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Corned beef hash” inspectable beside similarly named records.

How to read this

A single-source formulation

Beef, corned beef hash, with potato, canned is the only listed source input for this record. That does not mean every real-world version is identical; brands, preparation, water content, and portion weight can still differ.

100 g total listed input weight across the formulation.

Use this formulation to choose a closer record—not to reverse-engineer a recipe. If your meal adds, removes, or substantially changes one of these components, another source entry or a photo-based estimate may fit better.

USDA shorthand in this evidence
  • NFS means “not further specified.” The record intentionally leaves the exact subtype, size, or preparation unresolved.

Exact-record context

What makes this USDA record distinct?

For FDC 2706477, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Meat 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.

Exact nutrient values per 100 grams

Sodium412 mg412 mgSame listed value

Plain-English read

The six displayed nutrient values are close under a conservative materiality screen. Small differences remain exact source values, not evidence that one food is preferable.

Formulation evidence

The listed formulations match

The USDA input rows shown on these profiles are identical. The nutrient or portion distinction therefore should not be attributed to a different named input.

Shared listed inputs: Beef, corned beef hash, with potato, canned.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 165 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup, homemade (190 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 100 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 patty (100 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706477 with FDC 2706502 at equal mass; use their 165 g and 100 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2706477 versus FDC 2706502 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 amount served, recipe and ingredient ratios, added cooking fat, sauces and toppings.

For “Corned beef hash,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 01

    amount served

    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

    recipe and ingredient ratios

    Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.

  3. 03

    added cooking fat

    Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.

  4. 04

    sauces and toppings

    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 2706477 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 164 kcal per 100 g becomes 271 kcal at 165 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: 2706477

FNDDS food code: 27211400

The scaling for FDC 2706477 can be exact while the match to “Corned beef hash” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 165 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
