The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 82 calories for USDA reference amount at 100 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 82 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 1.6 g protein, 3.1 g fiber, and 154 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is sweet potato, cooked, as ingredient, representing 99.6% 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 reference amount and 1 small 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 21–205 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 2709699: “Sweet potato, baked, no added fat.” 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 2709699, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 oz, raw, yields” through “1 cup, mashed” 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 2709699’s 100 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin A; 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

Vitamin A699 µg

≈ 78% DV. This crosses the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

Vitamin C13 mg

≈ 15% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

Tradeoff-side signals

Sodium154 mg

≈ 7% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.

Saturated fat0 g

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Sweet potato, baked, no added fat,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709702 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Listed portion span: 1 oz, raw, yields to 1 cup, mashed

    USDA assigns those measures 25 g and 250 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 21 kcal to 205 kcal.

  2. 02

    Source identity: FDC 2709699 versus 2709702

    The closest published neighbor currently carries the same nutrient, portion, and source-input evidence. The FDC IDs still identify separate source records, so the exact citation remains the deciding field.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Sweet potato, cooked, as ingredient

    The source formulation has 2 input rows; Sweet potato, cooked, as ingredient supplies 99.6% 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

The published nutrient, portion, and formulation evidence is identical for this pair. Preserve FDC 2709699 when this is the cited source; do not manufacture a nutritional distinction that the records do not show.

Inside the source record

Source formulation behind this USDA record

USDA links FDC 2709699 to 2 source inputs totaling 100.4 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Sweet potato, baked, no added fat” inspectable beside similarly named records.

How to read this

2 listed components

The largest listed inputs by source weight are Sweet potato, cooked, as ingredient, Salt, table. The order and weights below come from the standardized USDA formulation, so they offer context for this exact database entry.

100.4 g total listed input weight across the formulation.

2 Salt, tableUSDA ingredient 2047 · encyclopedia page available 0.4 GM 0.4 g 0.4%

Use this formulation to choose a closer record—not to reverse-engineer a recipe. If your meal adds, removes, or substantially changes one of these components, another source entry or a photo-based estimate may fit better.

Exact-record context

What makes this USDA record distinct?

For FDC 2709699, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Other red and orange vegetables” 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.

Source-equivalent fields

Different source identities, matching published reference fields

Across the nutrient, portion, and formulation fields published here, FDC 2709699 and FDC 2709702 match exactly. Their descriptions and source identities remain distinct provenance; matching database fields do not make every real-world version interchangeable.

Practical reading: do not infer a nutrient difference from the names alone. Choose the description that more closely matches what was reported, while treating the shared values as a standardized reference rather than a measurement of your plate.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2709699 versus FDC 2709702 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, raw versus cooked weight, cooking method, added fat or sauce.

For “Sweet potato, baked, no added fat,” 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

    raw versus cooked weight

    Match the food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.

  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

    added fat 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 2709699 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 82 kcal per 100 g becomes 82 kcal at 100 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: 2709699

FNDDS food code: 73403010

The scaling for FDC 2709699 can be exact while the match to “Sweet potato, baked, no added fat” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 100 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
