The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 85 calories for USDA reference amount at 56 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 151 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 7 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 11 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is soybean, curd cheese, representing 100% of the record’s listed input weight. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The reference amount and 1 slice 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 27–340 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 2707437: “Soybean curd 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
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2707437, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 slice” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 sliceUSDA-listed household measure | 18 g | 27 kcal | 2.3 g | 0 g | 4 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 56 g | 85 kcal | 7 g | 0 g | 11 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 225 g | 340 kcal | 28.1 g | 0 g | 45 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Soy and meat-alternative products
The comparison set contains 18 exact records in the Soy and meat-alternative products USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2707437’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2707437’s 56 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Magnesium; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Saturated fat. 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Soybean curd cheese,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707435 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 slice to 1 cup
USDA assigns those measures 18 g and 225 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 27 kcal to 340 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707435
At an equal 100 g, this record has 5.7 g more carbohydrate than “Soybean curd.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Single listed source: Soybean, curd cheese
USDA derives this record from one listed source-input row at 100 g. Real preparations can still differ in water, cooking state, brand, and served weight.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when the exact wording “Soybean curd cheese” fits. Inspect FDC 2707435 when the exact wording “Soybean curd” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Inside the source record
Source formulation behind this USDA record
USDA links FDC 2707437 to one source input totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Soybean curd cheese” inspectable beside similarly named records.
How to read this
A single-source formulation
Soybean, curd cheese is the only listed source input for this record. That does not mean every real-world version is identical; brands, preparation, water content, and portion weight can still differ.
100 g total listed input weight across the formulation.

Exact-record context
What makes this USDA record distinct?
For FDC 2707437, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Soy and meat-alternative products” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 90 more calories, 5.3 g more protein, and 5.7 g more carbohydrate than “Soybean curd.”
Only this record lists Soybean, curd cheese. Only the comparison record lists Tofu, soft, prepared with calcium sulfate and magnesium chloride (nigari). 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.
Listed only in this record: Soybean, curd cheese.
Listed only in the comparison: Tofu, soft, prepared with calcium sulfate and magnesium chloride (nigari).
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 56 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 slice (18 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 62 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 piece (120 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707437 with FDC 2707435 at equal mass; use their 56 g and 62 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707437 versus FDC 2707435 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, preparation, added fat, sauce or seasoning.
For “Soybean curd cheese,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 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.
- 02
preparation
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.
- 03
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.
- 04
sauce or seasoning
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 2707437 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 151 kcal per 100 g becomes 85 kcal at 56 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: 2707437
FNDDS food code: 41420050
The scaling for FDC 2707437 can be exact while the match to “Soybean curd cheese” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 56 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
