The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 520 calories for 1 double hamburger at 180 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 289 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 34.6 g protein, 0.9 g fiber, and 619 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beef, ground, patties, frozen, cooked, broiled, representing 71.2% 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 source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 double hamburger at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
Record-specific decision brief
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2706936: “Double hamburger, on white bun, 2 small patties.” 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 2706936, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “125% of the reference weight” 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 | 135 g | 390 kcal | 25.9 g | 0.7 g | 464 mg |
| 1 double hamburgerUSDA-listed household measure | 180 g | 520 kcal | 34.6 g | 0.9 g | 619 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 225 g | 650 kcal | 43.2 g | 1.1 g | 774 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 47 exact records in the Burgers USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2706936’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2706936’s 180 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.
Iron5 mg
≈ 27% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Potassium454 mg
≈ 10% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat11.7 g
≈ 59% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Double hamburger, on white bun, 2 small patties,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706905 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 135–225 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 390 kcal and 650 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 68 mg less sodium than “Double cheeseburger, on white bun, 2 small patties.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Beef, ground, patties, frozen, cooked, broiled supplies 71.2% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

Only the comparison record lists Cheese as ingredient in sandwiches. 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: Rolls, hamburger or hotdog, plain; Beef, ground, patties, frozen, cooked, broiled; Salt, table.
Listed only in the comparison: Cheese as ingredient in sandwiches.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 180 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 double hamburger (180 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 205 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 burger (205 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706936 with FDC 2706905 at equal mass; use their 180 g and 205 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2706936 versus FDC 2706905 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 item size, bread or wrapper size, fillings, sauces and cheese.
For “Double hamburger, on white bun, 2 small patties,” resolve item size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
Resolve bread or wrapper 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.
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
FDC 2706936 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 289 kcal per 100 g becomes 520 kcal at 180 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.” The separately listed 1 double hamburger has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2706936
FNDDS food code: 27510649
The scaling for FDC 2706936 can be exact while the match to “Double hamburger, on white bun, 2 small patties” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 180 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
