The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 585 calories for 1 regular at 180 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 325 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 22.9 g protein, 1.6 g fiber, and 826 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is croissants, butter, representing 33.7% 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 source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 regular at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 585–878 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 2707320: “Egg sandwich on croissant, with sausage.” 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 2707320, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 large” 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 | 439 kcal | 17.1 g | 1.2 g | 620 mg |
| 1 regularUSDA-listed household measure | 180 g | 585 kcal | 22.9 g | 1.6 g | 826 mg |
| 1 largeUSDA-listed household measure | 270 g | 878 kcal | 34.3 g | 2.4 g | 1,239 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 46 exact records in the Egg/breakfast sandwiches USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2707320’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2707320’s 180 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 A300.6 µg
≈ 33% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Calcium243 mg
≈ 19% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat17.9 g
≈ 89% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium826 mg
≈ 36% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Egg sandwich on croissant, with sausage,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707319 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 180 g and 270 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 585 kcal to 878 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 4.8 g less carbohydrate than “Egg sandwich on croissant.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 5 input rows; Croissants, butter supplies 33.7% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

Only this record lists Pork sausage, link/patty, cooked, pan-fried; Pork, fresh, separable fat, cooked. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
4 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: Croissants, butter; Egg, whole, fried, NS as to fat; Cheese as ingredient in sandwiches.
Listed only in this record: Pork sausage, link/patty, cooked, pan-fried; Pork, fresh, separable fat, cooked.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 180 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 regular (180 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 135 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 regular (135 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707320 with FDC 2707319 at equal mass; use their 180 g and 135 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707320 versus FDC 2707319 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 “Egg sandwich on croissant, with sausage,” 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 2707320 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 325 kcal per 100 g becomes 585 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 regular 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: 2707320
FNDDS food code: 34001410
The scaling for FDC 2707320 can be exact while the match to “Egg sandwich on croissant, with sausage” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 180 g weight, 5-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
