The editorial read

The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity

Portion: the cited record reports about 221 calories for USDA reference amount at 187 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 118 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 14.6 g protein, 2.8 g fiber, and 570 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is tomato products, canned, sauce, representing 44% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 6 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 221–294 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 2706773: “Pork and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no potatoes, tomato-based sauce.” 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 2706773, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.

03 · FDA label lens

The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals

At FDC 2706773’s 187 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Potassium; 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Pork and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no…,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706642 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Portion sensitivity around 187 g

    A 25% weight move in either direction spans 140.3–233.8 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 165 kcal and 276 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2706642

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 5.9 g less carbohydrate than “Pork, potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Tomato products, canned, sauce

    The source formulation has 6 input rows; Tomato products, canned, sauce supplies 44% 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 “broccoli; and dark-green leafy; no potatoes; tomato-based sauce” fits. Inspect FDC 2706642 when “potatoes; and vegetables excluding carrots; broccoli; and dark-green leafy” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Inside the source record

Source formulation behind this USDA record

USDA links FDC 2706773 to 6 source inputs totaling 68.1 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Pork and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no potatoes…” inspectable beside similarly named records.

How to read this

USDA shorthand in this evidence
  • NFS means “not further specified.” The record intentionally leaves the exact subtype, size, or preparation unresolved.

Exact-record context

What makes this USDA record distinct?

For FDC 2706773, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Meat mixed dishes” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.

Plain-English read

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 2.7 g more protein and 5.9 g less carbohydrate than “Pork, potatoes, and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy….”

Only the comparison record lists Potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.

2 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.

Shared listed inputs: Pork, fresh, loin, whole, separable lean only, cooked, roasted; Tomato products, canned, sauce; Corn, sweet, yellow, frozen, kernels cut off cob, boiled, drained, without salt; Beans, snap, green, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained without salt; and 2 more.

Listed only in the comparison: Potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 187 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (249 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 189 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (252 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706773 with FDC 2706642 at equal mass; use their 187 g and 189 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2706773 versus FDC 2706642 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 “Pork and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no potatoes…,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 2706773 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 118 kcal per 100 g becomes 221 kcal at 187 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.

Exact USDA description: Pork and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no potatoes, tomato-based sauce

Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024

FoodData Central ID: 2706773

FNDDS food code: 27420410

The scaling for FDC 2706773 can be exact while the match to “Pork and vegetables excluding carrots, broccoli, and dark-green leafy; no potatoes, tomato-based sauce” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 187 g weight, 6-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
