The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 73 calories for USDA reference amount at 120 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 61 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 1.8 g protein, 0.8 g fiber, and 83 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is gelatin desserts, dry mix, prepared with water, representing 85% 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 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 10–146 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 2710312: “Gelatin salad with vegetables.” 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 2710312, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 cubic inch” through “1 cup” 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 | 10 kcal | 0.3 g | 0.1 g | 12 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 120 g | 73 kcal | 1.8 g | 0.8 g | 83 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 240 g | 146 kcal | 3.5 g | 1.7 g | 166 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Snacks & desserts
The comparison set contains 445 exact records in Feast’s broader Snacks & desserts category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2710312’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 2710312’s 120 g reference weight, none of the compatible strength-side nutrients evaluated here reaches 5% Daily Value; 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
No compatible strength-side nutrient evaluated here reaches 5% DV at this reference weight, so this page does not manufacture a “strength” from a negligible percentage.
Tradeoff-side signals
Sodium83 mg
≈ 4% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat0 g
≈ 0% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Gelatin salad with vegetables,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the absence of a qualifying close alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 cubic inch to 1 cup
USDA assigns those measures 17 g and 240 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 10 kcal to 146 kcal.
- 02
Record identity: FDC 2710312
No second entry passed the close-record rule for this page. Keep the exact USDA description “Gelatin salad with vegetables” attached to any value copied from this profile.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Gelatin desserts, dry mix, prepared with water
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Gelatin desserts, dry mix, prepared with water supplies 85% 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
Use this profile only when “Gelatin salad with vegetables” is the closest available description and the 120 g reference can be scaled to the amount you mean.

What does this USDA record represent?
Begin with the exact USDA description, then compare preparation, additions, and gram weight. A nearby record is useful only when its identity is closer—not simply because its name sounds familiar.
On smaller screens, focus a nutrition table and scroll horizontally to read every column.

How to compare FDC 2710312: its source amount is 120 g; every 100-gram column removes portion size from the record-to-record comparison. Neither denominator determines your plate’s weight or recipe.

Inside the source record
Source formulation behind this USDA record
USDA links FDC 2710312 to 2 source inputs totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Gelatin salad with vegetables” inspectable beside similarly named records.
How to read this
2 listed components
The largest listed inputs by source weight are Gelatin desserts, dry mix, prepared with water, Vegetables, mixed, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt. The order and weights below come from the standardized USDA formulation, so they offer context for this exact database entry.
100 g total listed input weight across the formulation.

Exact-record context
What makes this USDA record distinct?
For FDC 2710312, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Gelatins, ices, sorbets” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.
No forced match
This record does not have a sufficiently close direct comparator in the published corpus.
No other published “Gelatins, ices, sorbets” entry shares enough description or exact source-input evidence with FDC 2710312 to clear Feast’s close-record rule. A broad category neighbor would look relevant without establishing a defensible pair.

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, recipe or brand, fillings or frosting, added fats and sugars.
For “Gelatin salad with vegetables,” 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
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
fillings or frosting
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
- 04
added fats and sugars
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 2710312 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 61 kcal per 100 g becomes 73 kcal at 120 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: 2710312
FNDDS food code: 91501100
The scaling for FDC 2710312 can be exact while the match to “Gelatin salad with vegetables” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 120 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
