Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from frozen calories: 302 per 1 medium slice (88 g)
This exact USDA record reports 302 calories for 1 medium slice (88 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 302 calories for 1 medium slice at 88 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 343 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 9.2 g protein, 1.9 g fiber, and 496 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 87% 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 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 151–1,533 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 2707632: “Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from frozen.” 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 2707632, 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 | 151 kcal | 4.6 g | 1 g | 248 mg |
| 1 medium sliceUSDA-listed household measure | 88 g | 302 kcal | 9.2 g | 1.9 g | 496 mg |
| 1 baguette (about 22" long)USDA-listed household measure | 447 g | 1,533 kcal | 46.5 g | 9.8 g | 2,521 mg |

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from frozen,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707631 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 small slice to 1 baguette (about 22" long)
USDA assigns those measures 44 g and 447 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 151 kcal to 1,533 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707631
At an equal 100 g, this record has 72 mg less sodium than “Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from fast food / restaurant.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Garlic bread, frozen
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Garlic bread, frozen supplies 87% 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 “with melted cheese; from frozen” fits. Inspect FDC 2707631 when “with melted cheese; from fast food / restaurant” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

1 of the six displayed differences clears 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: Garlic bread, frozen; Cheese, mozzarella, low moisture, part-skim.
Listed only in the comparison: Salt, table.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets match
This record’s reference amount is 88 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 medium slice (88 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 88 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 medium slice (88 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707632 with FDC 2707631 at equal mass; use their 88 g and 88 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707632 versus FDC 2707631 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 item size, recipe or brand, moisture and density, spreads or toppings.
For “Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from frozen,” resolve item size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
item 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
recipe or brand
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
moisture and density
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
spreads or toppings
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
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2707632 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 343 kcal per 100 g becomes 302 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: 2707632
FNDDS food code: 51121075
The scaling for FDC 2707632 can be exact while the match to “Garlic bread, with melted cheese, from frozen” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 88 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
