The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 298 calories for 1 medium slice at 88 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 339 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 10 g protein, 1.8 g fiber, and 560 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is garlic bread, frozen, representing 79.9% 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 medium slice 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 149–1,515 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 2707631: “Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from fast food / restaurant.” 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 2707631, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 small slice” through “1 baguette (about 22" long)” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 small sliceUSDA-listed household measure | 44 g | 149 kcal | 5 g | 0.9 g | 280 mg |
| 1 medium sliceUSDA-listed household measure | 88 g | 298 kcal | 10 g | 1.8 g | 560 mg |
| 1 baguette (about 22" long)USDA-listed household measure | 447 g | 1,515 kcal | 51 g | 8.9 g | 2,843 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 104 exact records in the Yeast breads USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2707631’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2707631’s 88 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Iron; 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.
Iron2 mg
≈ 12% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Calcium141 mg

04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from fast food / restaurant,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707627 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 44 g and 447 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 149 kcal to 1,515 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 3.1 g more protein than “Garlic bread, from fast food / restaurant.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Garlic bread, frozen supplies 79.9% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

Uncertainty, made actionable
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with restaurant formulation and serving size, item size, recipe or brand, moisture and density.
For “Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from fast food / restaurant,” resolve restaurant formulation and serving 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.
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.
How we estimated this
FDC 2707631 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 339 kcal per 100 g becomes 298 kcal at 88 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 medium slice 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: 2707631
FNDDS food code: 51121065
The scaling for FDC 2707631 can be exact while the match to “Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from fast food / restaurant” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 88 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
