The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 44 calories for USDA reference amount at 75 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 59 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 0.5 g protein, 1.1 g fiber, and 3 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is strawberries, raw, 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 44–89 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 2709287: “Fruit salad, fresh or raw, excluding citrus fruits, no dressing.” 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 2709287, 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 | 56.3 g | 33 kcal | 0.4 g | 0.8 g | 2 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 75 g | 44 kcal | 0.5 g | 1.1 g | 3 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 150 g | 89 kcal | 1 g | 2.3 g | 6 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Other fruits and fruit salads
The comparison set contains 27 exact records in the Other fruits and fruit salads USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2709287’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2709287’s 75 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Fruit salad, fresh or raw, excluding citrus fruits, no dressing,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709288 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 75 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 56.3–93.8 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 33 kcal and 55 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2709288
At an equal 100 g, this record has 0.2 g less dietary fiber than “Fruit salad, fresh or raw, including citrus fruits, no dressing.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Strawberries, raw
The source formulation has 6 input rows; Strawberries, raw supplies 22.6% 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 “fresh or raw; excluding citrus fruits; no dressing” fits. Inspect FDC 2709288 when “fresh or raw; including citrus fruits; no dressing” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

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 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 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: Bananas, ripe and slightly ripe, raw; Apples, raw, with skin (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program); Grapes, raw; Strawberries, raw; and 2 more.
Listed only in the comparison: Oranges, raw, all commercial varieties.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets match
This record’s reference amount is 75 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (150 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 75 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (150 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2709287 with FDC 2709288 at equal mass; use their 75 g and 75 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2709287 versus FDC 2709288 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 piece or portion size, variety and ripeness, fresh versus cooked form, added sweeteners.
For “Fruit salad, fresh or raw, excluding citrus fruits, no dressing,” 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.
- 01
piece or 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
variety and ripeness
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
fresh versus cooked form
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.
- 04
added sweeteners
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
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2709287 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 59 kcal per 100 g becomes 44 kcal at 75 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: 2709287
FNDDS food code: 63311000
The scaling for FDC 2709287 can be exact while the match to “Fruit salad, fresh or raw, excluding citrus fruits, no dressing” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 75 g weight, 6-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
