The editorial read
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
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
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.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 225.8 g | 350 kcal | 20.7 g | 2.5 g | 680 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 241 g | 374 kcal | 22.1 g | 2.7 g | 725 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 301 g | 467 kcal | 27.6 g | 3.3 g | 906 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 197 exact records in the Meat mixed dishes USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2706636’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
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.
Calcium292 mg
≈ 22% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Iron3 mg
≈ 17% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat8.7 g
≈ 43% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium906 mg
≈ 39% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
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.
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.
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.
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
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.

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 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.

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