The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 77 calories for 1 egg at 50 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 6.3 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 196 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is egg, whole, cooked, hard-boiled, representing 99.3% 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.
Record-specific decision brief
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2707167: “Egg, whole, pickled.” 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 2707167, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “125% of the reference weight” 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 | 58 kcal | 4.7 g | 0 g | 147 mg |
| 1 eggUSDA-listed household measure | 50 g | 77 kcal | 6.3 g | 0 g | 196 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 62.5 g | 96 kcal | 7.8 g | 0 g | 245 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 116 exact records in the Eggs and omelets USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2707167’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2707167’s 50 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin A; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. 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 A74 µg
≈ 8% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Vitamin D1.1 µg
≈ 6% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium196 mg
≈ 9% 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.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Egg, whole, pickled,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707156 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 37.5–62.5 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 58 kcal and 96 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 148 mg more sodium than “Egg, whole, fried no added fat.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Egg, whole, cooked, hard-boiled supplies 99.3% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Keep this record when “whole; pickled” fits. Inspect FDC 2707156 when “whole; fried no added fat” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

How to compare FDC 2707167: 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.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 11 more calories and 148 mg more sodium than “Egg, whole, fried no added fat.”
Only this record lists Egg, whole, cooked, hard-boiled. Only the comparison record lists Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole. 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: Salt, table.
Listed only in this record: Egg, whole, cooked, hard-boiled.
Listed only in the comparison: Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 50 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 egg (50 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 50 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 egg (50 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707167 with FDC 2707156 at equal mass; use their 50 g and 50 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707167 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, pickled” beside explicitly linked source records; use them to compare preparations without turning FDC 2707167 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, pickled,” 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 2707167 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 154 kcal per 100 g becomes 77 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: 2707167
FNDDS food code: 31107000
The scaling for FDC 2707167 can be exact while the match to “Egg, whole, pickled” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 50 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
