The editorial read

The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity

Portion: the cited record reports about 161 calories for USDA reference amount at 129 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 125 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 3.4 g protein, 1.2 g fiber, and 245 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked, representing 73.3% 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 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 161–215 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 2709013: “Rice, white, with dark green vegetables, fat added.” 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 2709013, 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.

03 · FDA label lens

The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals

At FDC 2709013’s 129 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; 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.

Strength-side signals

Vitamin C25 mg

≈ 28% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

Iron1 mg

≈ 8% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Rice, white, with dark green vegetables, fat added,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709012 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Portion sensitivity around 129 g

    A 25% weight move in either direction spans 96.8–161.3 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 121 kcal and 202 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2709012

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 2.2 g more total fat than “Rice, white, with dark green vegetables, no added fat.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked

    The source formulation has 4 input rows; Rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked supplies 73.3% 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 “white; with dark green vegetables; fat added” fits. Inspect FDC 2709012 when “white; with dark green vegetables; no added fat” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 18 more calories and 2.2 g more total fat than “Rice, white, with dark green vegetables, no added fat.”

Only this record lists Vegetable oil, NFS. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.

2 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: Rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked; Broccoli, cooked, as ingredient; Salt, table.

Listed only in this record: Vegetable oil, NFS.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets match

This record’s reference amount is 129 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (172 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 129 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (172 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2709013 with FDC 2709012 at equal mass; use their 129 g and 129 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2709013 versus FDC 2709012 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 “Rice, white, with dark green vegetables, fat added,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 2709013 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 125 kcal per 100 g becomes 161 kcal at 129 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: 2709013

FNDDS food code: 58160570

The scaling for FDC 2709013 can be exact while the match to “Rice, white, with dark green vegetables, fat added” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 129 g weight, 4-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
