The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 296 calories for 1 regular at 135 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 219 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 20.1 g protein, 1.4 g fiber, and 946 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is bread, white, commercially prepared, representing 43.8% 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 source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 regular 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 153–449 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 2706954: “Roast beef sandwich on white, with cheese.” 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 2706954, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 miniature/slider” through “1 large” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 miniature/sliderUSDA-listed household measure | 70 g | 153 kcal | 10.4 g | 0.7 g | 491 mg |
| 1 regularUSDA-listed household measure | 135 g | 296 kcal | 20.1 g | 1.4 g | 946 mg |
| 1 largeUSDA-listed household measure | 205 g | 449 kcal | 30.5 g | 2.1 g | 1,437 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 61 exact records in the Deli and cured meat sandwiches USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2706954’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2706954’s 135 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Calcium; 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.
Calcium313 mg
≈ 24% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Iron3 mg
≈ 18% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium946 mg
≈ 41% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat4.6 g
≈ 23% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Roast beef sandwich on white, with cheese,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706953 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 70 g and 205 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 153 kcal to 449 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 3.8 g more total fat than “Roast beef sandwich on white.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Bread, white, commercially prepared supplies 43.8% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

3 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: Bread, white, commercially prepared; Roast beef, deli style, prepackaged, sliced.
Listed only in this record: Cheese as ingredient in sandwiches.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 135 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 regular (135 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 115 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 regular (115 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706954 with FDC 2706953 at equal mass; use their 135 g and 115 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Uncertainty, made actionable
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with item size, bread or wrapper size, fillings, sauces and cheese.
For “Roast beef sandwich on white, with cheese,” resolve item 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.
Resolve bread or wrapper size only when the meal or its source gives you evidence. If it is unknown, leave the uncertainty visible instead of choosing the most convenient variant.
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 2706954 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 219 kcal per 100 g becomes 296 kcal at 135 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 regular has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
