The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 174 calories for USDA reference amount at 80 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 217 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 6.6 g protein, 1.1 g fiber, and 407 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is bread, white, commercially prepared, representing 39.1% 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 174–349 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 2708748: “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 2708748, 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.

03 · FDA label lens

The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals

At FDC 2708748’s 80 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin A; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708746 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 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 130 kcal and 217 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2708746

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 3.2 g less total fat than “Cornmeal dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Bread, white, commercially prepared

    The source formulation has 9 input rows; Bread, white, commercially prepared supplies 39.1% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

05 · Exact-record choice

Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name

Keep this record when the exact wording “Dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables” fits. Inspect FDC 2708746 when the exact wording “Cornmeal dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 20 less calories and 3.2 g less total fat than “Cornmeal dressing with chicken or turkey and vegetables.”

Only this record lists Bread, white, commercially prepared. Only the comparison record lists Cornbread, made from home recipe. 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: Bread, white, commercially prepared.

Listed only in the comparison: Cornbread, made from home recipe.

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 2708748 with FDC 2708746 at equal mass; use their 80 g and 80 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2708748 versus FDC 2708746 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 “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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 2708748 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 217 kcal per 100 g becomes 174 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: 2708748

FNDDS food code: 58128220

The scaling for FDC 2708748 can be exact while the match to “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.
