Pork sandwich calories: 260 per 1 sandwich (115 g)
This exact USDA record reports 260 calories for 1 sandwich (115 g). That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 260 calories for 1 sandwich at 115 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 226 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 20.4 g protein, 1.4 g fiber, and 463 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is bread, white, commercially prepared, representing 51.7% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 2 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 sandwich at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2706977: “Pork sandwich.” 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 2706977, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “125% of the reference weight” 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 | 86.3 g | 195 kcal | 15.3 g | 1 g | 348 mg |
| 1 sandwich, any sizeUSDA-listed household measure | 115 g | 260 kcal | 20.4 g | 1.4 g | 463 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 143.8 g | 325 kcal | 25.4 g | 1.7 g | 579 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2706977’s 115 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Iron; 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
Iron2 mg
≈ 13% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Calcium129 mg

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Pork sandwich,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706978 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 115 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 86.3–143.8 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 195 kcal and 325 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2706978
At an equal 100 g, this record has 3.5 g less total fat than “Pork sandwich, with cheese.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Bread, white, commercially prepared
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Bread, white, commercially prepared supplies 51.7% 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 the exact wording “Pork sandwich” fits. Inspect FDC 2706978 when “with cheese” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 20 less calories, 3.1 g more carbohydrate, and 3.5 g less total fat than “Pork sandwich, with cheese.”
Only the comparison record lists Cheese as ingredient in sandwiches. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
4 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: Bread, white, commercially prepared; Pork, roast.
Listed only in the comparison: Cheese as ingredient in sandwiches.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 115 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 sandwich (115 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 135 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 sandwich (135 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706977 with FDC 2706978 at equal mass; use their 115 g and 135 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2706977 versus FDC 2706978 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 item size, bread or wrapper size, fillings, sauces and cheese.
For “Pork sandwich,” resolve item size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
item 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
bread or wrapper size
Resolve bread or wrapper size only when the meal or its source gives you evidence. If it is unknown, leave the uncertainty visible instead of choosing the most convenient variant.
- 03
fillings
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
- 04
sauces and cheese
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 2706977 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 226 kcal per 100 g becomes 260 kcal at 115 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.” The separately listed 1 sandwich has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2706977
FNDDS food code: 27520520
The scaling for FDC 2706977 can be exact while the match to “Pork sandwich” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 115 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
