The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 401 calories for USDA reference amount at 311 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 129 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 17.4 g protein, 3.4 g fiber, and 964 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked, representing 41.8% 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 321–401 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 2706651: “Pork, rice, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; 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 2706651, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “USDA reference amount” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Pork, rice, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy…,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706772 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Portion sensitivity around 311 g

    A 25% weight move in either direction spans 233.3–388.8 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 301 kcal and 501 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2706772

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 10.5 g more carbohydrate than “Pork and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; no potatoes, tomato-based sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked

    The source formulation has 7 input rows; Rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked supplies 41.8% 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 “rice; and vegetables including carrots; broccoli; and/or dark-green leafy” fits. Inspect FDC 2706772 when “broccoli; and/or dark-green leafy; no potatoes; tomato-based sauce” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

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, rice, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy…,” 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 2706651 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 129 kcal per 100 g becomes 401 kcal at 311 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, rice, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce

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

FoodData Central ID: 2706651

FNDDS food code: 27320340

The scaling for FDC 2706651 can be exact while the match to “Pork, rice, and vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and/or dark-green leafy; tomato-based sauce” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 311 g weight, 7-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
