The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 72 calories for 1 egg at 50 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 143 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 6.2 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 122 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 99.7% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 2 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 egg 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 72–193 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 2707165: “Egg, whole, baked, 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 2707165, 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.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 37.5 g | 54 kcal | 4.7 g | 0 g | 92 mg |
| 1 eggUSDA-listed household measure | 50 g | 72 kcal | 6.2 g | 0 g | 122 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 135 g | 193 kcal | 16.7 g | 0 g | 329 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 116 exact records in the Eggs and omelets USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2707165’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2707165’s 50 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 A89.5 µg
≈ 10% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Vitamin D1.3 µg
≈ 6% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat1.6 g
≈ 8% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium122 mg
≈ 5% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Egg, whole, baked, no added fat,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707156 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 50 g and 135 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 72 kcal to 193 kcal.
The closest published neighbor currently carries the same nutrient, portion, and source-input evidence. The FDC IDs still identify separate source records, so the exact citation remains the deciding field.
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole supplies 99.7% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
The published nutrient, portion, and formulation evidence is identical for this pair. Preserve FDC 2707165 when this is the cited source; do not manufacture a nutritional distinction that the records do not show.

Choose the closest description
Treat the long description as data. The phrases doing the most work here are “whole”, “baked”, and “no added fat”. Match those details first; then compare the database weight with the amount you mean.

How to compare FDC 2707165: its source amount is 50 g; every 100-gram column removes portion size from the record-to-record comparison. Neither denominator determines your plate’s weight or recipe.

Exact-record context
For FDC 2707165, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Eggs and omelets” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.

Source-equivalent fields
Across the nutrient, portion, and formulation fields published here, FDC 2707165 and FDC 2707156 match exactly. Their descriptions and source identities remain distinct provenance; matching database fields do not make every real-world version interchangeable.
Practical reading: do not infer a nutrient difference from the names alone. Choose the description that more closely matches what was reported, while treating the shared values as a standardized reference rather than a measurement of your plate.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707165 versus FDC 2707156 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.

From record to familiar meal
These 2 guides place “Egg, whole, baked, no added fat” beside explicitly linked source records; use them to compare preparations without turning FDC 2707165 into a universal recipe.
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, whole, baked, 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 2707165 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 143 kcal per 100 g becomes 72 kcal at 50 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 egg 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: 2707165
FNDDS food code: 31106010
The scaling for FDC 2707165 can be exact while the match to “Egg, whole, baked, no added fat” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 50 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
