The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 272 calories for USDA reference amount at 130 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 209 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 16.6 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 467 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 81.8% 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 136–282 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 2707210: “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese, made with animal fat or meat drippings.” 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 2707210, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 egg” through “1 cup” 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 | 65 g | 136 kcal | 8.3 g | 0 g | 233 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 130 g | 272 kcal | 16.6 g | 0 g | 467 mg |

02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Eggs and omelets
The comparison set contains 116 exact records in the Eggs and omelets USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2707210’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2707210’s 130 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, made with animal fat or meat drippings,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707225 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 egg to 1 cup
USDA assigns those measures 65 g and 135 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 136 kcal to 282 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707225
At an equal 100 g, this record has 56 mg less sodium than “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and meat, made with animal fat or meat drippings.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole
The source formulation has 4 input rows; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole supplies 81.8% 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; made with animal fat or meat drippings” fits. Inspect FDC 2707225 when “with cheese and meat; made with animal fat or meat drippings” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 56 mg less sodium than “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese and meat, made with animal fat or meat drippings.”
Only the comparison 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; Animal fat or drippings; Cheese as ingredient in sandwiches.
Listed only in the comparison: Breakfast meat as ingredient in omelet.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 130 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).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707210 with FDC 2707225 at equal mass; use their 130 g and 170 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707210 versus FDC 2707225 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, made with animal fat or meat drippings,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 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.
- 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
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.
- 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 2707210 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 209 kcal per 100 g becomes 272 kcal at 130 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: 2707210
FNDDS food code: 32130140
The scaling for FDC 2707210 can be exact while the match to “Egg omelet or scrambled egg, with cheese, made with animal fat or meat drippings” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 130 g weight, 4-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
