The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 125 calories for USDA reference amount at 91 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 137 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 1.7 g protein, 1.3 g fiber, and 36 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is puddings, vanilla, ready-to-eat, representing 22.6% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 6 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 125–249 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 2709301: “Fruit salad, excluding citrus fruits, with pudding.” 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 2709301, 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 | 68.3 g | 94 kcal | 1.3 g | 1 g | 27 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 91 g | 125 kcal | 1.7 g | 1.3 g | 36 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 182 g | 249 kcal | 3.4 g | 2.5 g | 73 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 27 exact records in the Other fruits and fruit salads USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2709301’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2709301’s 91 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; 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 C15 mg
≈ 16% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat0.7 g
≈ 3% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium36 mg
≈ 2% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Fruit salad, excluding citrus fruits, with pudding,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709300 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 68.3–113.8 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 94 kcal and 156 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 0.4 g less dietary fiber than “Fruit salad, including citrus fruits, with pudding.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 6 input rows; Puddings, vanilla, ready-to-eat supplies 22.6% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

Plain-English read
The six displayed nutrient values are close under a conservative materiality screen. Small differences remain exact source values, not evidence that one food is preferable.
Only this record lists Pineapple, raw. Only the comparison record lists Oranges, raw, all commercial varieties. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
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: Bananas, ripe and slightly ripe, raw; Apples, raw, with skin (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program); Grapes, raw; Puddings, vanilla, ready-to-eat; and 1 more.
Listed only in this record: Pineapple, raw.
Listed only in the comparison: Oranges, raw, all commercial varieties.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 91 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (182 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 91 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (182 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2709301 with FDC 2709300 at equal mass; use their 91 g and 91 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2709301 versus FDC 2709300 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 piece or portion size, variety and ripeness, fresh versus cooked form, added sweeteners.
For “Fruit salad, excluding citrus fruits, with pudding,” resolve piece or 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 food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.
Use a label or known recipe when available, because sweetness does not reveal dose. Keep syrups, sugars, and concentrated add-ins separate when the base record does not name them.
How we estimated this
FDC 2709301 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 137 kcal per 100 g becomes 125 kcal at 91 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: 2709301
FNDDS food code: 63403000
The scaling for FDC 2709301 can be exact while the match to “Fruit salad, excluding citrus fruits, with pudding” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 91 g weight, 6-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
