Kiwi fruit, raw calories: 48 per 1 fruit (75 g)

This exact USDA record reports 48 calories for 1 fruit (75 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 48 calories for 1 fruit at 75 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 64 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 0.8 g protein, 2.3 g fiber, and 4 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is kiwifruit, green, raw, representing 100% of the record’s listed input weight. 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 fruit at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.

The household measures attached to this record span roughly 4–115 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 2709239: “Kiwi fruit, raw.” 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 2709239, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 slice” 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 2709239’s 75 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; 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.

Strength-side signals

Vitamin C56 mg

≈ 62% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Kiwi fruit, raw,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709248 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Listed portion span: 1 slice to 1 cup

    USDA assigns those measures 7 g and 180 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 4 kcal to 115 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2709248

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 7.4 g less dietary fiber than “Passion fruit, raw.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Single listed source: Kiwifruit, green, raw

    USDA derives this record from one listed source-input row at 100 g. Real preparations can still differ in water, cooking state, brand, and served weight.

05 · Exact-record choice

Keep this record when “raw” fits. Inspect FDC 2709248 when “raw” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Inside the source record

Source formulation behind this USDA record

USDA links FDC 2709239 to one source input totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Kiwi fruit, raw” inspectable beside similarly named records.

How to read this

A single-source formulation

Kiwifruit, green, raw is the only listed source input for this record. That does not mean every real-world version is identical; brands, preparation, water content, and portion weight can still differ.

100 g total listed input weight across the formulation.

#USDA inputListed amountInput weightShare of listed input weight
1 Kiwifruit, green, rawUSDA ingredient 9148 100 GM 100 g 100%

Use this formulation to choose a closer record—not to reverse-engineer a recipe. If your meal adds, removes, or substantially changes one of these components, another source entry or a photo-based estimate may fit better.

Exact-record context

What makes this USDA record distinct?

For FDC 2709239, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Other fruits and fruit salads” 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 33 less calories, 1.1 g less protein, and 9.4 g less carbohydrate than “Passion fruit, raw.”

Only this record lists Kiwifruit, green, raw. Only the comparison record lists Passion-fruit, (granadilla), purple, raw. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.

4 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.

Listed only in this record: Kiwifruit, green, raw.

Listed only in the comparison: Passion-fruit, (granadilla), purple, raw.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 75 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 fruit (75 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 118 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (236 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2709239 with FDC 2709248 at equal mass; use their 75 g and 118 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2709239 versus FDC 2709248 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 piece or portion size, variety and ripeness, fresh versus cooked form, added sweeteners.

For “Kiwi fruit, raw,” resolve piece or portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 01

    piece or 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

    variety and ripeness

    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

    fresh versus cooked form

    Match the food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.

  4. 04

    added sweeteners

    Use a label or known recipe when available, because sweetness does not reveal dose. Keep syrups, sugars, and concentrated add-ins separate when the base record does not name them.

How we estimated this

The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point

FDC 2709239 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 64 kcal per 100 g becomes 48 kcal at 75 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 fruit 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: 2709239

FNDDS food code: 63126500

The scaling for FDC 2709239 can be exact while the match to “Kiwi fruit, raw” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 75 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
