The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 433 calories for USDA reference amount at 305 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 142 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 14.8 g protein, 1.2 g fiber, and 1,488 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 47.4% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 5 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 346–433 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 2706511: “Sausage and rice with mushroom sauce.” 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 2706511, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “USDA reference amount” 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 | 228.8 g | 325 kcal | 11.1 g | 0.9 g | 1,116 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 244 g | 346 kcal | 11.9 g | 1 g | 1,191 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 305 g | 433 kcal | 14.8 g | 1.2 g | 1,488 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 197 exact records in the Meat mixed dishes USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2706511’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2706511’s 305 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
≈ 14% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Magnesium31 mg
≈ 7% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium1,488 mg
≈ 65% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat5.4 g
≈ 27% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Sausage and rice with mushroom sauce,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706506 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 228.8–381.3 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 325 kcal and 541 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 92 mg less sodium than “Ham and rice with mushroom sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 5 input rows; Rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked supplies 47.4% 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 92 mg less sodium than “Ham and rice with mushroom sauce.”
Only this record lists Pork sausage, link/patty, cooked, pan-fried. Only the comparison record lists Pork, cured, ham, boneless, regular (approximately 11% fat), roasted; Vegetable oil, NFS. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
1 of the six displayed differences clears 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: Soup, cream of mushroom, canned, condensed; Milk, NFS; Rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked; Salt, table.
Listed only in this record: Pork sausage, link/patty, cooked, pan-fried.
Listed only in the comparison: Pork, cured, ham, boneless, regular (approximately 11% fat), roasted; Vegetable oil, NFS.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 305 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (244 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 310 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (248 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706511 with FDC 2706506 at equal mass; use their 305 g and 310 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2706511 versus FDC 2706506 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 amount served, recipe and ingredient ratios, added cooking fat, sauces and toppings.
For “Sausage and rice with mushroom sauce,” 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.
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
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 2706511 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 142 kcal per 100 g becomes 433 kcal at 305 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: 2706511
FNDDS food code: 27220150
The scaling for FDC 2706511 can be exact while the match to “Sausage and rice with mushroom sauce” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 305 g weight, 5-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
