The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 190 calories for USDA reference amount at 80 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 237 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 6.1 g protein, 1 g fiber, and 449 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is cornbread, made from home recipe, representing 40.5% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 9 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 190–382 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 2708746: “Cornmeal dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables.” 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 2708746, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 60 g | 142 kcal | 4.6 g | 0.7 g | 337 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 80 g | 190 kcal | 6.1 g | 1 g | 449 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 161 g | 382 kcal | 12.2 g | 1.9 g | 903 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Cornmeal dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708748 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 80 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 60–100 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 142 kcal and 237 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2708748
At an equal 100 g, this record has 3.2 g more total fat than “Dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Cornbread, made from home recipe
The source formulation has 9 input rows; Cornbread, made from home recipe supplies 40.5% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

Only this record lists Cornbread, made from home recipe. Only the comparison record lists Bread, white, commercially prepared. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
2 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: Margarine, stick; Onions, raw; Celery, raw; Spices, sage, ground; and 4 more.
Listed only in this record: Cornbread, made from home recipe.
Listed only in the comparison: Bread, white, commercially prepared.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets match
This record’s reference amount is 80 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (161 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 80 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (161 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2708746 with FDC 2708748 at equal mass; use their 80 g and 80 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2708746 versus FDC 2708748 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 piece or portion size, recipe or brand, fillings or frosting, added fats and sugars.
For “Cornmeal dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables,” resolve piece or portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
piece or 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
recipe or brand
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
fillings or frosting
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
- 04
added fats and sugars
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 2708746 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 237 kcal per 100 g becomes 190 kcal at 80 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: 2708746
FNDDS food code: 58128120
The scaling for FDC 2708746 can be exact while the match to “Cornmeal dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 80 g weight, 9-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
