Salmon cake sandwich calories: 502 per 1 regular sandwich (180 g)
This exact USDA record reports 502 calories for 1 regular sandwich (180 g). That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 502 calories for 1 regular sandwich at 180 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 279 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 25 g protein, 1.8 g fiber, and 754 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is fish, salmon cake or patty, representing 66.7% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 2 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 sandwich 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 251–1,004 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 2707023: “Salmon cake sandwich.” 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 2707023, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 miniature/slider” through “1 large sandwich” 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 | 90 g | 251 kcal | 12.5 g | 0.9 g | 377 mg |
| 1 regular sandwichUSDA-listed household measure | 180 g | 502 kcal | 25 g | 1.8 g | 754 mg |
| 1 large sandwichUSDA-listed household measure | 360 g | 1,004 kcal | 50 g | 3.6 g | 1,508 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2707023’s 180 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin D; 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

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Salmon cake sandwich,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707022 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 miniature/slider to 1 large sandwich
USDA assigns those measures 90 g and 360 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 251 kcal to 1,004 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707022
At an equal 100 g, this record has 4.7 g more total fat than “Crab cake sandwich.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Fish, salmon cake or patty
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Fish, salmon cake or patty supplies 66.7% 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 48 more calories and 4.7 g more total fat than “Crab cake sandwich.”
Only this record lists Fish, salmon cake or patty. Only the comparison record lists Crab, cake. 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: Bread, white, commercially prepared.
Listed only in this record: Fish, salmon cake or patty.
Listed only in the comparison: Crab, cake.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets match
This record’s reference amount is 180 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 regular sandwich (180 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 180 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 regular sandwich (180 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707023 with FDC 2707022 at equal mass; use their 180 g and 180 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707023 versus FDC 2707022 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 item size, bread or wrapper size, fillings, sauces and cheese.
For “Salmon cake sandwich,” resolve item size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
item size
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
bread or wrapper size
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.
- 03
fillings
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
sauces and cheese
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
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2707023 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 279 kcal per 100 g becomes 502 kcal at 180 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 sandwich 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: 2707023
FNDDS food code: 27550120
The scaling for FDC 2707023 can be exact while the match to “Salmon cake sandwich” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 180 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
