The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 113 calories for USDA reference amount at 90 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 126 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 7.8 g protein, 6.7 g fiber, and 210 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beans, kidney, red, mature seeds, cooked, boiled, without salt, representing 99.4% 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 88–227 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 2707381: “Kidney beans, from dried, no added fat.” 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 2707381, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 oz dry, yield after cooking” through “1 cup” 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 2707381’s 90 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Dietary fiber; 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Kidney beans, from dried, no added fat,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707380 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Listed portion span: 1 oz dry, yield after cooking to 1 cup

    USDA assigns those measures 70 g and 180 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 88 kcal to 227 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2707380

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 6.5 g less total fat than “Kidney beans, from dried, fat added.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Beans, kidney, red, mature seeds, cooked, boiled, without salt

    The source formulation has 2 input rows; Beans, kidney, red, mature seeds, cooked, boiled, without salt supplies 99.4% 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 “from dried; no added fat” fits. Inspect FDC 2707380 when “from dried; fat added” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 51 less calories and 6.5 g less total fat than “Kidney beans, from dried, fat added.”

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: Beans, kidney, red, mature seeds, cooked, boiled, without salt; Salt, table.

Listed only in the comparison: Vegetable oil, NFS.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 90 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (180 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 92 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (185 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707381 with FDC 2707380 at equal mass; use their 90 g and 92 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2707381 versus FDC 2707380 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 portion size, preparation, added fat, sauce or seasoning.

For “Kidney beans, from dried, no added fat,” 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

    preparation

    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.

  3. 03

    added 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

    sauce or seasoning

    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 2707381 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 126 kcal per 100 g becomes 113 kcal at 90 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: 2707381

FNDDS food code: 41106020

The scaling for FDC 2707381 can be exact while the match to “Kidney beans, from dried, no added fat” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 90 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
