The editorial read

The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity

Portion: the cited record reports about 258 calories for USDA reference amount at 85 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 304 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 21.3 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 197 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is goose, domesticated, meat and skin, cooked, roasted, representing 99.6% 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, cooked, diced 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 258–426 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 2706142: “Goose, wild, roasted.” 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 2706142, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 cup, cooked, diced” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.

02 · Fixed-weight context

The comparison set contains 36 exact records in the Turkey, duck, other poultry USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2706142’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 2706142’s 85 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Goose, wild, roasted,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706139 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Portion sensitivity around 85 g

    A 25% weight move in either direction spans 63.8–106.3 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 194 kcal and 323 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2706139

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 6.2 g more protein than “Duck, roasted, skin eaten.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Goose, domesticated, meat and skin, cooked, roasted

    The source formulation has 2 input rows; Goose, domesticated, meat and skin, cooked, roasted supplies 99.6% 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 “wild; roasted” fits. Inspect FDC 2706139 when “roasted; skin eaten” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

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: Salt, table.

Listed only in this record: Goose, domesticated, meat and skin, cooked, roasted.

Listed only in the comparison: Duck, domesticated, meat and skin, cooked, roasted.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 85 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup, cooked, diced (140 g).

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 portion size, cut and fat trim, cooking method, breading, marinade, or sauce.

For “Goose, wild, roasted,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 01

    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.

  2. 02

    cut and fat trim

    Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.

  3. 03

    cooking method

    Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.

  4. 04

    breading, marinade, or sauce

    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 2706142 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 304 kcal per 100 g becomes 258 kcal at 85 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: 2706142

FNDDS food code: 24311010

The scaling for FDC 2706142 can be exact while the match to “Goose, wild, roasted” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 85 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
