The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 6 calories for USDA reference amount at 5 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 127 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 0.1 g protein, 0.1 g fiber, and 0 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is onions, raw, representing 39.5% 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 6–305 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 2709755: “Puerto Rican seasoning without ham and tomato 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 2709755, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 cup” 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 | 3.8 g | 5 kcal | 0 g | 0.1 g | 0 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 5 g | 6 kcal | 0.1 g | 0.1 g | 0 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 240 g | 305 kcal | 2.4 g | 3.6 g | 10 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Mustard and other condiments
The comparison set contains 11 exact records in the Mustard and other condiments USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2709755’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2709755’s 5 g reference weight, none of the compatible strength-side nutrients evaluated here reaches 5% Daily Value; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Saturated fat. 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
No compatible strength-side nutrient evaluated here reaches 5% DV at this reference weight, so this page does not manufacture a “strength” from a negligible percentage.
Tradeoff-side signals
Saturated fat0.1 g
≈ 0% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium0 mg
≈ 0% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Puerto Rican seasoning without ham and tomato sauce,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709754 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 5 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 3.8–6.3 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 5 kcal and 8 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2709754
At an equal 100 g, this record has 463 mg less sodium than “Puerto Rican seasoning with ham.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Onions, raw
The source formulation has 7 input rows; Onions, raw supplies 39.5% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice

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 used, recipe or brand, concentration, oil, sugar, and salt formulation.
For “Puerto Rican seasoning without ham and tomato sauce,” resolve amount used first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
amount used
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
recipe or brand
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
concentration
Estimate what was actually consumed, including liquid left behind. The same bowl volume can contain a different mass and solid-to-liquid balance.
- 04
oil, sugar, and salt formulation
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 2709755 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 127 kcal per 100 g becomes 6 kcal at 5 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: 2709755
FNDDS food code: 74420110
The scaling for FDC 2709755 can be exact while the match to “Puerto Rican seasoning without ham and tomato sauce” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 5 g weight, 7-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
