The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 243 calories for 1 cup at 251 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 97 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 8.1 g protein, 3.8 g fiber, and 710 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is ravioli, meat-filled, with tomato sauce or meat sauce, canned, representing 100% of the record’s listed input weight. 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 32–412 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 2708765: “Ravioli, meat-filled, with tomato sauce or meat sauce, canned.” 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 2708765, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 piece” through “1 can (15 oz)” 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 | 33 g | 32 kcal | 1.1 g | 0.5 g | 93 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 251 g | 243 kcal | 8.1 g | 3.8 g | 710 mg |
| 1 can (15 oz)USDA-listed household measure | 425 g | 412 kcal | 13.8 g | 6.4 g | 1,203 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 169 exact records in the Pasta mixed dishes, excludes macaroni and cheese USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2708765’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2708765’s 251 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Iron; 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.
Iron3 mg
≈ 15% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Dietary fiber3.8 g
≈ 13% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium710 mg
≈ 31% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat3.7 g
≈ 18% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Ravioli, meat-filled, with tomato sauce or meat sauce, canned,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708764 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 33 g and 425 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 32 kcal to 412 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 5.5 g less protein than “Ravioli, meat-filled, with tomato sauce or meat sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
USDA derives this record from one listed source-input row at 100 g. Real preparations can still differ in water, cooking state, brand, and served weight.
05 · Exact-record choice
Keep this record when “meat-filled; with tomato sauce or meat sauce; canned” fits. Inspect FDC 2708764 when “meat-filled; with tomato sauce or meat sauce” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Uncertainty, made actionable
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, meat-filled, with tomato sauce or meat sauce, canned,” resolve amount served 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.
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
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 2708765 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 97 kcal per 100 g becomes 243 kcal at 251 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: 2708765
FNDDS food code: 58131323
The scaling for FDC 2708765 can be exact while the match to “Ravioli, meat-filled, with tomato sauce or meat sauce, canned” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 251 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
