The editorial read

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

Portion: the cited record reports about 242 calories for 1 cup at 200 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 121 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.

Composition: that source amount also reports 9 g protein, 2.4 g fiber, and 1,192 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.

Identity: the largest listed formulation input is noodles, egg, enriched, cooked, representing 55.3% 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 source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 cup at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.

Record-specific decision brief

What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you

This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2708793: “Tortellini, spinach-filled, with tomato 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

Three weights, one fixed composition

For FDC 2708793, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “125% of the reference weight” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.

The comparison set contains 169 exact records in the Pasta mixed dishes, excludes macaroni and cheese USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2708793’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 2708793’s 200 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 A134 µg

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

Iron2 mg

04 · Highest-impact checks

The three levers most worth resolving first

For “Tortellini, spinach-filled, with tomato sauce,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2708794 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.

  1. 01

    Portion sensitivity around 200 g

    A 25% weight move in either direction spans 150–250 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 182 kcal and 303 kcal.

  2. 02

    Record choice: compare with FDC 2708794

    At an equal 100 g, this record has 395 mg more sodium than “Tortellini, spinach-filled, no sauce.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.

  3. 03

    Formulation anchor: Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked

    The source formulation has 13 input rows; Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked supplies 55.3% 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 “spinach-filled; with tomato sauce” fits. Inspect FDC 2708794 when “spinach-filled; no sauce” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

5 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: Spinach, cooked, as ingredient; Mortadella, beef, pork; Cheese, parmesan, grated; Margarine, regular, 80% fat, composite, stick, with salt; and 2 more.

Listed only in this record: Noodles, egg, enriched, cooked; Onions, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt; Tomato products, canned, sauce; Spices, basil, dried; and 2 more.

Listed only in the comparison: Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg whole; Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached.

Portion evidence

The listed portion sets differ

This record’s reference amount is 200 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (200 g).

The comparison record’s reference amount is 122 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (122 g).

Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2708793 with FDC 2708794 at equal mass; use their 200 g and 122 g source amounts only for portion matching.

Evidence boundary: FDC 2708793 versus FDC 2708794 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, cooked-to-dry ratio, sauce or mix-ins, added fat.

For “Tortellini, spinach-filled, with tomato sauce,” 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

    cooked-to-dry ratio

    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

    sauce or mix-ins

    Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.

  4. 04

    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.

How we estimated this

The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point

FDC 2708793 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 121 kcal per 100 g becomes 242 kcal at 200 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.” The separately listed 1 cup has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.

Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024

FoodData Central ID: 2708793

FNDDS food code: 58134710

The scaling for FDC 2708793 can be exact while the match to “Tortellini, spinach-filled, with tomato sauce” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 200 g weight, 13-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
