The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 337 calories for USDA reference amount at 170 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 198 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 22.6 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 714 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is eggs, grade a, large, egg whole, representing 75.6% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 5 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 168–337 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 2707222: “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and meat, made with margarine.” 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 2707222, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 egg” through “USDA reference amount” 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 2707222’s 170 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin A; 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and meat, made with margarine,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707207 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Listed portion span: 1 egg to 1 cup

    USDA assigns those measures 85 g and 135 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 168 kcal to 267 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2707207

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 56 mg more sodium than “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese, made with margarine.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole

    The source formulation has 5 input rows; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole supplies 75.6% 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 “with cheese and meat; made with margarine” fits. Inspect FDC 2707207 when “with cheese; made with margarine” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 56 mg more sodium than “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese, made with margarine.”

Only this record lists Breakfast meat as ingredient in omelet. 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 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: Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole; Salt, table; Margarine, NFS; Cheese as ingredient in sandwiches.

Listed only in this record: Breakfast meat as ingredient in omelet.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 170 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (135 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 130 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (135 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707222 with FDC 2707207 at equal mass; use their 170 g and 130 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2707222 versus FDC 2707207 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 portion size, recipe or brand, cooking fat, toppings and add-ins.

For “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and meat, made with margarine,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 01

    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

    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

    toppings and add-ins

    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 2707222 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 198 kcal per 100 g becomes 337 kcal at 170 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: 2707222

FNDDS food code: 32130300

The scaling for FDC 2707222 can be exact while the match to “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and meat, made with margarine” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 170 g weight, 5-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
