The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 209 calories for USDA reference amount at 100 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 209 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 5.9 g protein, 1.6 g fiber, and 68 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 64.6% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 7 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 21–418 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 2708949: “Noodle pudding.” 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 2708949, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 cubic inch” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 cubic inchUSDA-listed household measure | 10 g | 21 kcal | 0.6 g | 0.2 g | 7 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 100 g | 209 kcal | 5.9 g | 1.6 g | 68 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 200 g | 418 kcal | 11.9 g | 3.2 g | 136 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 169 exact records in the Pasta mixed dishes, excludes macaroni and cheese USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2708949’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2708949’s 100 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.
Iron2 mg
≈ 9% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Vitamin A78 µg
≈ 9% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat1.7 g
≈ 8% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium68 mg
≈ 3% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Noodle pudding,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708721 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 10 g and 200 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 21 kcal to 418 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 1.4 g more dietary fiber than “Gnocchi, cheese.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 7 input rows; Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked supplies 64.6% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Keep this record when the exact wording “Noodle pudding” fits. Inspect FDC 2708721 when “cheese” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

How to compare FDC 2708949: its source amount is 100 g; every 100-gram column removes portion size from the record-to-record comparison. Neither denominator determines your plate’s weight or recipe.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 31 more calories, 2.6 g less protein, and 21.6 g more carbohydrate than “Gnocchi, cheese.”
Only this record lists Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked; Sugars, granulated; Spices, cinnamon, ground; Raisins, dark, seedless (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program). Only the comparison record lists Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached; Cheese, ricotta, part skim milk; Cheese, parmesan, grated; Beverages, water, tap, municipal. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
6 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: Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole; Margarine, stick.
Listed only in this record: Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked; Sugars, granulated; Spices, cinnamon, ground; Raisins, dark, seedless (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program); and 1 more.
Listed only in the comparison: Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached; Cheese, ricotta, part skim milk; Cheese, parmesan, grated; Beverages, water, tap, municipal.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 100 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (200 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 70 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (70 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2708949 with FDC 2708721 at equal mass; use their 100 g and 70 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2708949 versus FDC 2708721 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
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with amount served, cooked-to-dry ratio, sauce or mix-ins, added fat.
For “Noodle pudding,” 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.
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.
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
How we estimated this
FDC 2708949 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 209 kcal per 100 g becomes 209 kcal at 100 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.
