The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 171 calories for USDA reference amount at 28 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 612 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 5.5 g protein, 2.1 g fiber, and 45 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is mixed nuts, without peanuts, unsalted, representing 48.8% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 4 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 171–869 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 2707507: “Mixed nuts, with peanuts, lightly salted.” 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 2707507, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “USDA reference amount” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 28 g | 171 kcal | 5.5 g | 2.1 g | 45 mg |
| 1 packageUSDA-listed household measure | 50 g | 306 kcal | 9.9 g | 3.7 g | 80 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 142 g | 869 kcal | 28 g | 10.5 g | 227 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Nuts and seeds
The comparison set contains 68 exact records in the Nuts and seeds USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2707507’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2707507’s 28 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Magnesium; 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 “Mixed nuts, with peanuts, lightly salted,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707506 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 package to 1 cup
USDA assigns those measures 50 g and 142 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 306 kcal to 869 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707506
At an equal 100 g, this record has 153 mg less sodium than “Mixed nuts, with peanuts, salted.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Mixed nuts, without peanuts, unsalted
The source formulation has 4 input rows; Mixed nuts, without peanuts, unsalted supplies 48.8% 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 “with peanuts; lightly salted” fits. Inspect FDC 2707506 when “with peanuts; salted” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Shared listed inputs: Mixed nuts, without peanuts, unsalted; Peanuts, all types, dry-roasted, without salt; Vegetable oil, NFS; Salt, table.
The ingredient codes overlap, while at least one listed amount, weight, sequence, or formulation detail differs.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets match
This record’s reference amount is 28 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (142 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 28 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (142 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707507 with FDC 2707506 at equal mass; use their 28 g and 28 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707507 versus FDC 2707506 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 “Mixed nuts, with peanuts, lightly salted,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 2707507 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 612 kcal per 100 g becomes 171 kcal at 28 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: 2707507
FNDDS food code: 42110110
The scaling for FDC 2707507 can be exact while the match to “Mixed nuts, with peanuts, lightly salted” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 28 g weight, 4-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
