Fish, cod, grilled calories: 151 per 1 small/regular fillet (140 g)
This exact USDA record reports 151 calories for 1 small/regular fillet (140 g). That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 151 calories for 1 small/regular fillet at 140 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 108 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 27.2 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 484 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is fish, cod, pacific, raw (may have been previously frozen), representing 97.6% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 3 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 small/regular fillet 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 18–454 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 2706242: “Fish, cod, grilled.” 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 2706242, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 cubic inch” through “1 whole fish, any size” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 cubic inchUSDA-listed household measure | 17 g | 18 kcal | 3.3 g | 0 g | 59 mg |
| 1 small/regular filletUSDA-listed household measure | 140 g | 151 kcal | 27.2 g | 0 g | 484 mg |
| 1 whole fish, any sizeUSDA-listed household measure | 420 g | 454 kcal | 81.5 g | 0 g | 1,453 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2706242’s 140 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Potassium; 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.
Strength-side signals

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Fish, cod, grilled,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706241 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 cubic inch to 1 whole fish, any size
USDA assigns those measures 17 g and 420 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 18 kcal to 454 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2706241
At an equal 100 g, this record has 2.3 g less total fat than “Fish, cod, baked or broiled.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Fish, cod, Pacific, raw (may have been previously frozen)
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Fish, cod, Pacific, raw (may have been previously frozen) supplies 97.6% 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 “cod; grilled” fits. Inspect FDC 2706241 when “cod; baked or broiled” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

2 of the six displayed differences clear 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: Fish, cod, Pacific, raw (may have been previously frozen); Oil or table fat, NFS; Salt, table.
The ingredient codes overlap, while at least one listed amount, weight, sequence, or formulation detail differs.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets match
This record’s reference amount is 140 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 small/regular fillet (140 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 140 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 small/regular fillet (140 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706242 with FDC 2706241 at equal mass; use their 140 g and 140 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2706242 versus FDC 2706241 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, species or cut, cooking method, breading, butter, or sauce.
For “Fish, cod, grilled,” 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
species or cut
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 method
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
- 04
breading, butter, or sauce
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2706242 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 108 kcal per 100 g becomes 151 kcal at 140 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 small/regular fillet 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: 2706242
FNDDS food code: 26109123
The scaling for FDC 2706242 can be exact while the match to “Fish, cod, grilled” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 140 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
