Ham or pork & noodles, other vegetables, cheese sauce calories: 467 per 301 g

This exact USDA record reports 467 calories for 301 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 467 calories for USDA reference amount at 301 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 155 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 27.6 g protein, 3.3 g fiber, and 906 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is noodles, egg, enriched, cooked, representing 43.3% 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 374–467 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 2706636: “Ham or pork, noodles and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; cheese sauce.” 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 2706636, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “USDA reference amount” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.

03 · FDA label lens

The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals

At FDC 2706636’s 301 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Calcium; 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.

Strength-side signals

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Ham or pork, noodles and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green…,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706634 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Portion sensitivity around 301 g

    A 25% weight move in either direction spans 225.8–376.3 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 350 kcal and 583 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2706634

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 1.5 g more total fat than “Ham or pork, noodles and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked

    The source formulation has 6 input rows; Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked supplies 43.3% 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 “noodles and vegetables excluding carrots; broccoli; and dark-green leafy; cheese sauce” fits. Inspect FDC 2706634 when “noodles and vegetables excluding carrots; broccoli; and dark-green leafy; no sauce” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Exact-record context

What makes this USDA record distinct?

For FDC 2706636, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Meat mixed dishes” 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.

Plain-English read

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 3 g less carbohydrate and 1.5 g more total fat than “Ham or pork, noodles and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no….”

Only this record lists Cheese sauce, prepared from recipe. Only the comparison record lists Vegetable oil, NFS. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.

2 of the six displayed differences clear 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: Pork, fresh, loin, whole, separable lean only, cooked, roasted; Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked; Corn, sweet, yellow, frozen, kernels cut off cob, boiled, drained, without salt; Beans, snap, green, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained without salt; and 1 more.

Listed only in this record: Cheese sauce, prepared from recipe.

Listed only in the comparison: Vegetable oil, NFS.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 301 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (241 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 202 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (162 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706636 with FDC 2706634 at equal mass; use their 301 g and 202 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2706636 versus FDC 2706634 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 amount served, recipe and ingredient ratios, added cooking fat, sauces and toppings.

For “Ham or pork, noodles and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy…,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 01

    amount served

    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

    recipe and ingredient ratios

    Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.

  3. 03

    added cooking fat

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

  4. 04

    sauces and 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 2706636 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 155 kcal per 100 g becomes 467 kcal at 301 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.

Exact USDA description: Ham or pork, noodles and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; cheese sauce

Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024

FoodData Central ID: 2706636

FNDDS food code: 27320030

The scaling for FDC 2706636 can be exact while the match to “Ham or pork, noodles and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; cheese sauce” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 301 g weight, 6-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
