The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 246 calories for USDA reference amount at 160 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 154 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 19.2 g protein, 0.3 g fiber, and 488 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 76.7% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 4 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 123–246 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
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2707242: “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and tomatoes, no added fat.” 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 2707242, 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.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 eggUSDA-listed household measure | 80 g | 123 kcal | 9.6 g | 0.2 g | 244 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 135 g | 208 kcal | 16.2 g | 0.3 g | 412 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 160 g | 246 kcal | 19.2 g | 0.3 g | 488 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 116 exact records in the Eggs and omelets USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2707242’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2707242’s 160 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.
Vitamin A278.4 µg
≈ 31% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Vitamin D3.7 µg
≈ 18% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat6.9 g
≈ 35% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium488 mg
≈ 21% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and tomatoes, no added fat,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707241 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 80 g and 135 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 123 kcal to 208 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 4 g less total fat than “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and tomatoes, fat added.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 4 input rows; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole supplies 76.7% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 32 less calories and 4 g less total fat than “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and tomatoes, fat added.”
Only the comparison record lists Oil or table fat, NFS. 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 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; Cheese as ingredient in sandwiches; Tomatoes as ingredient in omelet.
Listed only in the comparison: Oil or table fat, NFS.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 160 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (135 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 170 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (135 g).

Uncertainty, made actionable
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 tomatoes, no added fat,” resolve portion 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.
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
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 2707242 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 154 kcal per 100 g becomes 246 kcal at 160 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
