The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 74 calories for USDA reference amount at 100 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 74 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 2.5 g protein, 1.3 g fiber, and 235 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt, representing 63.4% 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 reference amount and 1 small 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 74–152 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
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2709418: “Potato from Puerto Rican style stuffed pot roast, with gravy.” 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
For FDC 2709418, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 small” through “1 large” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 smallUSDA-listed household measure | 103 g | 76 kcal | 2.5 g | 1.3 g | 242 mg |
| 1 mediumUSDA-listed household measure | 137 g | 101 kcal | 3.4 g | 1.8 g | 322 mg |
| 1 largeUSDA-listed household measure | 206 g | 152 kcal | 5.1 g | 2.7 g | 484 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 41 exact records in the Mashed potatoes and white potato mixtures USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2709418’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2709418’s 100 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; 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.
Vitamin C5 mg
≈ 5% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Potassium238 mg

04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Potato from Puerto Rican style stuffed pot roast, with gravy,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709419 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 103 g and 206 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 76 kcal to 152 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has calories than “Potato from Puerto Rican beef stew, with gravy.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt supplies 63.4% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

Plain-English read
The six displayed nutrient values are close under a conservative materiality screen. Small differences remain exact source values, not evidence that one food is preferable.
Formulation evidence
The USDA input rows shown on these profiles are identical. The nutrient or portion distinction therefore should not be attributed to a different named input.
Shared listed inputs: Potatoes, boiled, cooked without skin, flesh, without salt; Gravy, beef, canned, ready-to-serve.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 100 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 small (103 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 116 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 small (122 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2709418 with FDC 2709419 at equal mass; use their 100 g and 116 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2709418 versus FDC 2709419 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
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 from Puerto Rican style stuffed pot roast, with gravy,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
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.
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.
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
FDC 2709418 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 74 kcal per 100 g becomes 74 kcal at 100 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: 2709418
FNDDS food code: 71106020
The scaling for FDC 2709418 can be exact while the match to “Potato from Puerto Rican style stuffed pot roast, with gravy” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 100 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
