The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 349 calories for USDA reference amount at 100 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 349 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 8.4 g protein, 1.6 g fiber, and 216 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached, representing 48.1% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 9 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The reference amount and 1 kolache 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 349–496 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 2708727: “Pastry, egg and cheese filled.” 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 2708727, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 kolache” 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 | 75 g | 262 kcal | 6.3 g | 1.2 g | 162 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 100 g | 349 kcal | 8.4 g | 1.6 g | 216 mg |
| 1 kolacheUSDA-listed household measure | 142 g | 496 kcal | 11.9 g | 2.3 g | 307 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 17 exact records in the Turnovers and other grain-based items USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2708727’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2708727’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.
Iron3 mg
≈ 16% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Vitamin A125 µg
≈ 14% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat7 g
≈ 35% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium216 mg
≈ 9% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Pastry, egg and cheese filled,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708733 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 75–125 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 262 kcal and 436 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 30.1 g more carbohydrate than “Cheese quiche, meatless.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 9 input rows; Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached supplies 48.1% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 3.5 g less protein, 30.1 g more carbohydrate, and 13.5 g less total fat than “Cheese quiche, meatless.”
Only this record lists Milk, NFS; Butter, stick, salted; Leavening agents, yeast, baker's, active dry; Sugars, granulated. Only the comparison record lists Pie crust, standard-type, frozen, ready-to-bake, enriched, baked; Cheese, swiss; Cream, heavy; Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
5 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.

Uncertainty, made actionable
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with piece or portion size, recipe or brand, fillings or frosting, added fats and sugars.
For “Pastry, egg and cheese filled,” 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.
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
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 2708727 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 349 kcal per 100 g becomes 349 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.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024

FNDDS food code: 58124220
The scaling for FDC 2708727 can be exact while the match to “Pastry, egg and cheese filled” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 100 g weight, 9-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
