The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 133 calories for USDA reference amount at 88 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 151 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 1.9 g protein, 1.6 g fiber, and 319 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 59.6% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 4 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The reference amount and Skin from 1 large 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 38–133 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 2709488: “Potato skins without topping.” 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 2709488, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “Skin from 1 small” through “Skin from 1 large” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Skin from 1 smallUSDA-listed household measure | 25 g | 38 kcal | 0.5 g | 0.5 g | 91 mg |
| Skin from 1 mediumUSDA-listed household measure | 35 g | 53 kcal | 0.7 g | 0.6 g | 127 mg |
| Skin from 1 largeUSDA-listed household measure | 50 g | 76 kcal | 1.1 g | 0.9 g | 182 mg |

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Potato skins without topping,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709489 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: Skin from 1 small to Skin from 1 large
USDA assigns those measures 25 g and 50 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 38 kcal to 76 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2709489
At an equal 100 g, this record has 4 g less protein than “Potato skins, with cheese.” 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 4 input rows; Potatoes, baked, flesh and skin, without salt supplies 59.6% 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 “Potato skins without topping” fits. Inspect FDC 2709489 when “with cheese” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

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: Potatoes, baked, flesh, without salt; Potatoes, baked, flesh and skin, without salt; Salt, table; Vegetable oil, NFS.
Listed only in the comparison: Cheese, cheddar.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 88 g; a familiar listed measure is Skin from 1 large (50 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 113 g; a familiar listed measure is Skin from 1 large (70 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2709488 with FDC 2709489 at equal mass; use their 88 g and 113 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2709488 versus FDC 2709489 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 portion size, raw versus cooked weight, cooking method, added fat or sauce.
For “Potato skins without topping,” 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 2709488 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 151 kcal per 100 g becomes 133 kcal at 88 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: 2709488
FNDDS food code: 71410000
The scaling for FDC 2709488 can be exact while the match to “Potato skins without topping” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 88 g weight, 4-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
