The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 374 calories for USDA reference amount at 304 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 123 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 30.7 g protein, 2.4 g fiber, and 1,325 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, canned, representing 36.9% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 7 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 299–374 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 2706713: “Shrimp creole, with rice.” 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 2706713, 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.

03 · FDA label lens

The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals

At FDC 2706713’s 304 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.

Strength-side signals

Iron5 mg

≈ 27% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Shrimp creole, with rice,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706856 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Portion sensitivity around 304 g

    A 25% weight move in either direction spans 228–380 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 280 kcal and 467 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2706856

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 283 mg more sodium than “Shrimp creole, no rice.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, canned

    The source formulation has 7 input rows; Crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, canned supplies 36.9% 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 “with rice” fits. Inspect FDC 2706856 when “no rice” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 4.2 g less protein, 7.4 g more carbohydrate, and 1.5 g less total fat than “Shrimp creole, no rice.”

Only this record lists Crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, canned; Rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked. Only the comparison record lists Crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, cooked, moist heat (may contain additives to retain moisture). Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.

4 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: Onions, raw; Peppers, bell, green, raw; Margarine, stick; Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached; and 1 more.

Listed only in this record: Crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, canned; Rice, white, long-grain, regular, enriched, cooked.

Listed only in the comparison: Crustaceans, shrimp, mixed species, cooked, moist heat (may contain additives to retain moisture).

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 304 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (243 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 123 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (246 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706713 with FDC 2706856 at equal mass; use their 304 g and 123 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2706713 versus FDC 2706856 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 portion size, species or cut, cooking method, breading, butter, or sauce.

For “Shrimp creole, with rice,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 01

    portion 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.

  2. 02

    species or cut

    Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.

  3. 03

    cooking method

    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.

  4. 04

    breading, butter, or sauce

    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 2706713 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 123 kcal per 100 g becomes 374 kcal at 304 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: 2706713

FNDDS food code: 27350060

The scaling for FDC 2706713 can be exact while the match to “Shrimp creole, with rice” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 304 g weight, 7-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
