The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 363 calories for 1 cup at 250 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 145 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 13.9 g protein, 1.8 g fiber, and 995 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is milk, nfs, representing 36.6% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 11 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 cup 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 55–363 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 2708773: “Ravioli, cheese and spinach-filled, with cream 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 2708773, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 piece” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 pieceUSDA-listed household measure | 38 g | 55 kcal | 2.1 g | 0.3 g | 151 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2708773’s 250 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin A; 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Ravioli, cheese and spinach-filled, with cream sauce,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708772 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 piece to 1 cup
USDA assigns those measures 38 g and 250 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 55 kcal to 363 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2708772
At an equal 100 g, this record has 2.2 g more total fat than “Ravioli, cheese and spinach-filled, no sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Milk, NFS
The source formulation has 11 input rows; Milk, NFS supplies 36.6% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 1.1 g less protein, 5.1 g less carbohydrate, and 2.2 g more total fat than “Ravioli, cheese and spinach-filled, no sauce.”
Only this record lists Margarine, stick; Milk, NFS. 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: Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole; Beverages, water, tap, municipal; Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached; Salt, table; and 5 more.
Listed only in this record: Margarine, stick; Milk, NFS.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 250 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (250 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 160 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (160 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2708773 with FDC 2708772 at equal mass; use their 250 g and 160 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2708773 versus FDC 2708772 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 amount served, cooked-to-dry ratio, sauce or mix-ins, added fat.
For “Ravioli, cheese and spinach-filled, with cream sauce,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
amount served
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
cooked-to-dry ratio
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
sauce or mix-ins
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
added fat
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 2708773 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 145 kcal per 100 g becomes 363 kcal at 250 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 cup 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: 2708773
FNDDS food code: 58131600
The scaling for FDC 2708773 can be exact while the match to “Ravioli, cheese and spinach-filled, with cream sauce” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 250 g weight, 11-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
