The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 713 calories for USDA reference amount at 266 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 268 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 27.7 g protein, 5.9 g fiber, and 1,189 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is pizza, cheese topping, regular crust, frozen, cooked, 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 piece, NFS 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 19–3,363 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 2708613: “Pizza, cheese, from frozen, thick crust.” 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 2708613, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 surface inch” through “1 frozen large pizza (14-16" diameter)” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 surface inchUSDA-listed household measure | 7.1 g | 19 kcal | 0.7 g | 0.2 g | 32 mg |
| 1 frozen personal size pizza (5-7" diameter)USDA-listed household measure | 260 g | 697 kcal | 27 g | 5.7 g | 1,162 mg |
| 1 frozen large pizza (14-16" diameter)USDA-listed household measure | 1,255 g | 3,363 kcal | 130.5 g | 27.6 g | 5,610 mg |

The comparison set contains 86 exact records in the Pizza USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2708613’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 2708613’s 266 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Calcium; 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.
Strength-side signals
Calcium476 mg
≈ 37% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Iron6 mg
≈ 34% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Pizza, cheese, from frozen, thick crust,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708625 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 surface inch to 1 frozen large pizza (14-16" diameter)
USDA assigns those measures 7.1 g and 1,255 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 19 kcal to 3,363 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2708625
At an equal 100 g, this record has 15 kcal more calories than “Pizza, cheese with vegetables, from frozen, thick crust.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Single listed source: Pizza, cheese topping, regular crust, frozen, cooked
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 “cheese; from frozen; thick crust” fits. Inspect FDC 2708625 when “cheese with vegetables; from frozen; thick crust” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Inside the source record
Source formulation behind this USDA record
USDA links FDC 2708613 to one source input totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Pizza, cheese, from frozen, thick crust” inspectable beside similarly named records.
How to read this
A single-source formulation
Pizza, cheese topping, regular crust, frozen, cooked 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 15 more calories than “Pizza, cheese with vegetables, from frozen, thick crust.”
Only the comparison record lists Peppers, sweet, green, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt; Onions, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
1 of the six displayed differences clears 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.
Shared listed inputs: Pizza, cheese topping, regular crust, frozen, cooked.
Listed only in the comparison: Peppers, sweet, green, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt; Onions, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 266 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 piece, NFS (133 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 286 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 piece, NFS (143 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2708613 with FDC 2708625 at equal mass; use their 266 g and 286 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2708613 versus FDC 2708625 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 amount served, recipe and ingredient ratios, added cooking fat, sauces and toppings.
For “Pizza, cheese, from frozen, thick crust,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
amount served
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
recipe and ingredient ratios
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
added cooking 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
sauces and toppings
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 2708613 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 268 kcal per 100 g becomes 713 kcal at 266 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: 2708613
FNDDS food code: 58106205
The scaling for FDC 2708613 can be exact while the match to “Pizza, cheese, from frozen, thick crust” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 266 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
