The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 89 calories for USDA reference amount at 28 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 318 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 3.8 g protein, 2.5 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 peanuts, all types, cooked, boiled, with salt, representing 100% of the record’s listed input weight. 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 5–464 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 2707513: “Peanuts, boiled.” 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 2707513, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 nut” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 nutUSDA-listed household measure | 1.5 g | 5 kcal | 0.2 g | 0.1 g | 11 mg |
| 1 ozUSDA-listed household measure | 28.4 g | 90 kcal | 3.8 g | 2.5 g | 213 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 146 g | 464 kcal | 19.7 g | 12.8 g | 1,096 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, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2707513’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 2707513’s 28 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.
Strength-side signals

≈ 9% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Peanuts, boiled,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707514 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 nut to 1 cup
USDA assigns those measures 1.5 g and 146 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 5 kcal to 464 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707514
At an equal 100 g, this record has 733 mg more sodium than “Peanuts, unroasted.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Single listed source: Peanuts, all types, cooked, boiled, with salt
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
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when “boiled” fits. Inspect FDC 2707514 when “unroasted” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Inside the source record
Source formulation behind this USDA record
USDA links FDC 2707513 to one source input totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Peanuts, boiled” inspectable beside similarly named records.
How to read this
A single-source formulation
Peanuts, all types, cooked, boiled, with salt 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.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 249 less calories, 12.3 g less protein, and 5.2 g more carbohydrate than “Peanuts, unroasted.”
Only this record lists Peanuts, all types, cooked, boiled, with salt. Only the comparison record lists Peanuts, all types, raw. 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 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: Peanuts, all types, cooked, boiled, with salt.
Listed only in the comparison: Peanuts, all types, raw.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 28 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (146 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 28 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup, in shell, yields (51 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707513 with FDC 2707514 at equal mass; use their 28 g and 28 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707513 versus FDC 2707514 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 “Peanuts, boiled,” 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 2707513 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 318 kcal per 100 g becomes 89 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: 2707513
FNDDS food code: 42111030
The scaling for FDC 2707513 can be exact while the match to “Peanuts, boiled” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 28 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
