Potato, baked, peel eaten calories: 265 per 1 medium (285 g)
This exact USDA record reports 265 calories for 1 medium (285 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 265 calories for 1 medium at 285 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 93 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 7.1 g protein, 6.3 g fiber, and 530 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is potatoes, baked, flesh and skin, without salt, representing 99.5% 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 medium at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 121–372 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 2709524: “Potato, baked, peel eaten.” 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 2709524, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 cup” through “1 large” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 130 g | 121 kcal | 3.2 g | 2.9 g | 242 mg |
| 1 mediumUSDA-listed household measure | 285 g | 265 kcal | 7.1 g | 6.3 g | 530 mg |
| 1 largeUSDA-listed household measure | 400 g | 372 kcal | 10 g | 8.8 g | 744 mg |

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Potato, baked, peel eaten,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709384 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 cup to 1 large
USDA assigns those measures 130 g and 400 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 121 kcal to 372 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2709384
At an equal 100 g, this record has 0.7 g more dietary fiber than “Potato, baked, peel not eaten.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Potatoes, baked, flesh and skin, without salt
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Potatoes, baked, flesh and skin, without salt supplies 99.5% 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 “baked; peel eaten” fits. Inspect FDC 2709384 when “baked; peel not eaten” 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 portion size, raw versus cooked weight, cooking method, added fat or sauce.
For “Potato, baked, peel eaten,” 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
raw versus cooked weight
Match the food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.
- 03
cooking method
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.
- 04
added fat or sauce
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2709524 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 93 kcal per 100 g becomes 265 kcal at 285 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 medium 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: 2709524
FNDDS food code: 71508001
The scaling for FDC 2709524 can be exact while the match to “Potato, baked, peel eaten” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 285 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
