The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 547 calories for USDA reference amount at 202 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 271 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 16.5 g protein, 6.7 g fiber, and 143 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is lamb, ground, raw, representing 31.4% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 13 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 57–547 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 2706659: “Stuffed grape leaves with lamb and 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 2706659, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 roll” through “USDA reference amount” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Stuffed grape leaves with lamb and rice,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706621 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Listed portion span: 1 roll to 1 cup

    USDA assigns those measures 21 g and 162 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 57 kcal to 439 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2706621

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 349 mg less sodium than “Stuffed grape leaves with beef and rice.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Lamb, ground, raw

    The source formulation has 13 input rows; Lamb, ground, raw supplies 31.4% 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 43 more calories, 4.5 g more total fat, and 349 mg less sodium than “Stuffed grape leaves with beef and rice.”

Only this record lists Lamb, ground, raw. Only the comparison record lists Beef, ground, raw. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.

3 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; Garlic, raw; Olive oil; Parsley, fresh; and 7 more.

Listed only in this record: Lamb, ground, raw.

Listed only in the comparison: Beef, ground, raw.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets match

This record’s reference amount is 202 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (162 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 202 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (162 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2706659 with FDC 2706621 at equal mass; use their 202 g and 202 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2706659 versus FDC 2706621 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 amount served, recipe and ingredient ratios, added cooking fat, sauces and toppings.

For “Stuffed grape leaves with lamb and rice,” resolve amount served first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.

  1. 01

    amount served

    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

    recipe and ingredient ratios

    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

    added cooking 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.

  4. 04

    sauces and toppings

    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 2706659 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 271 kcal per 100 g becomes 547 kcal at 202 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: 2706659

FNDDS food code: 27330170

The scaling for FDC 2706659 can be exact while the match to “Stuffed grape leaves with lamb and rice” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 202 g weight, 13-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
