The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 129 calories for USDA reference amount at 130 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 99 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 10.2 g protein, 4.2 g fiber, and 528 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is refried beans, representing 86% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 3 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 129–257 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 2707398: “Refried beans with meat.” 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 2707398, 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 | 97.5 g | 97 kcal | 7.6 g | 3.1 g | 396 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 130 g | 129 kcal | 10.2 g | 4.2 g | 528 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 260 g | 257 kcal | 20.3 g | 8.3 g | 1,056 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 60 exact records in the Beans, peas, legumes USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2707398’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2707398’s 130 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Dietary fiber; 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.
Dietary fiber4.2 g
≈ 15% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Iron2 mg
≈ 11% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium528 mg
≈ 23% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat1.1 g
≈ 5% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Refried beans with meat,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707366 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 97.5–162.5 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 97 kcal and 161 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 4.3 g less total fat than “Black beans with meat.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Refried beans supplies 86% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 78 less calories, 2.8 g less protein, and 7.3 g less carbohydrate than “Black beans with meat.”
Only this record lists Refried beans. Only the comparison record lists Black beans, from dried, fat added. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
6 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
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: Ham, for use with vegetables; Beef, for use with vegetables.
Listed only in this record: Refried beans.
Listed only in the comparison: Black beans, from dried, fat added.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 130 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (260 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 130 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (260 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707398 with FDC 2707366 at equal mass; use their 130 g and 130 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707398 versus FDC 2707366 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, preparation, added fat, sauce or seasoning.
For “Refried beans with meat,” 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 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.
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
How we estimated this
FDC 2707398 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 99 kcal per 100 g becomes 129 kcal at 130 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: 2707398
FNDDS food code: 41205030
The scaling for FDC 2707398 can be exact while the match to “Refried beans with meat” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 130 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
