The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 330 calories for 1 hamburger at 115 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 287 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 19.7 g protein, 0.9 g fiber, and 415 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beef, ground, patties, frozen, cooked, broiled, representing 55.4% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 3 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 hamburger at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2706927: “Hamburger, on white bun, 1 small patty.” 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 2706927, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “125% of the reference weight” 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 | 86.3 g | 248 kcal | 14.7 g | 0.7 g | 311 mg |
| 1 hamburgerUSDA-listed household measure | 115 g | 330 kcal | 19.7 g | 0.9 g | 415 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 143.8 g | 413 kcal | 24.6 g | 1.2 g | 519 mg |

The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2706927’s 115 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 “Hamburger, on white bun, 1 small patty,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706932 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 115 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 86.3–143.8 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 248 kcal and 413 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2706932
At an equal 100 g, this record has 0.1 g more dietary fiber than “Hamburger, on white bun, 1 medium patty.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Beef, ground, patties, frozen, cooked, broiled
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Beef, ground, patties, frozen, cooked, broiled supplies 55.4% 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 “on white bun; 1 small patty” fits. Inspect FDC 2706932 when “on white bun; 1 medium patty” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
The six displayed nutrient values are close under a conservative materiality screen. Small differences remain exact source values, not evidence that one food is preferable.
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: Rolls, hamburger or hotdog, plain; Beef, ground, patties, frozen, cooked, broiled; Salt, table.
The ingredient codes overlap, while at least one listed amount, weight, sequence, or formulation detail differs.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 115 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 hamburger (115 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 145 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 hamburger (145 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706927 with FDC 2706932 at equal mass; use their 115 g and 145 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2706927 versus FDC 2706932 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, bread or wrapper size, fillings, sauces and cheese.
For “Hamburger, on white bun, 1 small patty,” 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
bread or wrapper size
Resolve bread or wrapper size only when the meal or its source gives you evidence. If it is unknown, leave the uncertainty visible instead of choosing the most convenient variant.
- 03
fillings
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
sauces and cheese
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 2706927 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 287 kcal per 100 g becomes 330 kcal at 115 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 hamburger 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: 2706927
FNDDS food code: 27510575
The scaling for FDC 2706927 can be exact while the match to “Hamburger, on white bun, 1 small patty” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 115 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
