The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 174 calories for USDA reference amount at 56 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 310 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 5.5 g protein, 5.5 g fiber, and 346 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is tortillas, ready-to-bake or -fry, whole wheat, 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 medium 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 102–322 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 2707825: “Tortilla, whole wheat.” 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 2707825, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 small” through “1 extra large” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 smallUSDA-listed household measure | 33 g | 102 kcal | 3.2 g | 3.2 g | 204 mg |
| 1 mediumUSDA-listed household measure | 45 g | 140 kcal | 4.4 g | 4.4 g | 278 mg |
| 1 extra largeUSDA-listed household measure | 104 g | 322 kcal | 10.2 g | 10.2 g | 642 mg |

The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2707825’s 56 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Dietary fiber; 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.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Tortilla, whole wheat,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the absence of a qualifying close alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 small to 1 extra large
USDA assigns those measures 33 g and 104 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 102 kcal to 322 kcal.
- 02
Record identity: FDC 2707825
No second entry passed the close-record rule for this page. Keep the exact USDA description “Tortilla, whole wheat” attached to any value copied from this profile.
- 03
Single listed source: Tortillas, ready-to-bake or -fry, whole wheat
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
Use this profile only when “Tortilla, whole wheat” is the closest available description and the 56 g reference can be scaled to the amount you mean.

What does this USDA record represent?
Treat the long description as data. The phrases doing the most work here are “whole wheat”. Match those details first; then compare the database weight with the amount you mean.
On smaller screens, focus a nutrition table and scroll horizontally to read every column.

How to compare FDC 2707825: its source amount is 56 g; every 100-gram column removes portion size from the record-to-record comparison. Neither denominator determines your plate’s weight or recipe.

Inside the source record
Source formulation behind this USDA record
USDA links FDC 2707825 to one source input totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Tortilla, whole wheat” inspectable beside similarly named records.
How to read this
A single-source formulation
Tortillas, ready-to-bake or -fry, whole wheat 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.
| # | USDA input | Listed amount | Input weight | Share of listed input weight |

Exact-record context
What makes this USDA record distinct?
For FDC 2707825, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Tortillas” 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.
No forced match
This record does not have a sufficiently close direct comparator in the published corpus.
No other published “Tortillas” entry shares enough description or exact source-input evidence with FDC 2707825 to clear Feast’s close-record rule. A broad category neighbor would look relevant without establishing a defensible pair.

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 item size, recipe or brand, moisture and density, spreads or toppings.
For “Tortilla, whole wheat,” resolve item size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
item 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
recipe or brand
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 03
moisture and density
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.
- 04
spreads or 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 2707825 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 310 kcal per 100 g becomes 174 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: 2707825
FNDDS food code: 52215260
The scaling for FDC 2707825 can be exact while the match to “Tortilla, whole wheat” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 56 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
