Exact nutrition reference, complete food catalog and source methodology

This page helps you find complete foods that include Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg white in USDA’s nutrition data. Choose the record that most closely matches what you ate; Feast does not turn a collection average into a standalone ingredient estimate.

What the code means

One exact source label across 16 complete records.

Every occurrence collected here uses ingredient code 1124 and the source description “Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg white.” The code is preserved exactly as it appears in the FNDDS input-food rows. It is not a FoodData Central FDC ID, so this page does not invent a standalone ingredient-record URL.

The strongest concentrations of linked records are currently Eggs and omelets (15), Seafood mixed dishes (1). These are category counts within Feast’s selected 3,850-record corpus. They do not estimate how often the ingredient is eaten, how common it is in recipes generally, or its prevalence across every FNDDS release.

Collection-level interpretation

Grounded ways to understand this source label

These summaries describe the linked FNDDS records in this exact corpus. They do not estimate consumer frequency, market share, or the composition of a meal.

Typical listed-weight range

75.6%–94.6%

The middle half of linked records spans 19 percentage points from the 25th to the 75th percentile. This is more resistant to a single extreme record than the full minimum-to-maximum range.

Largest linked category

Eggs and omelets

15 of 16 linked records (94%) sit in this USDA category. The remainder span 1 other category.

Most populated share band

60% to 100%

15 records (94%) fall in this band after repeated rows for code 1124 are combined within each food.

Most frequent eligible co-input

Salt, table

It appears alongside code 1124 in 15 linked records (94%). Co-occurrence describes database structure, not a required recipe.

Where USDA uses this input

Linked records by source-food category

Each record is counted once even if ingredient code 1124 appears on more than one input row inside that formulation. The category grouping describes the complete linked foods, not a culinary rule about the ingredient.

Important nutrition boundary

This collection does not support a verified standalone nutrition answer for “Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg white.”

No unique exact food-code match or reviewed sole-source bridge qualifies for a direct consumer answer. Feast therefore does not treat the collection median, minimum, maximum, or an arbitrary similar record as the nutrition of this input.

The table below describes the complete linked foods per 100 grams. Use it to find a closer finished-food record, not to infer what this formulation input supplies on its own.

Compare complete food records

Nutrient span across the linked foods

Every value in this table describes an entire USDA survey-food record per 100 grams. The values are not the nutrient content of ingredient code 1124, and differences cannot be attributed to this one input.

Decision support from the exact records on this page

Turn source data into a better next decision

These conclusions and reading paths are computed from 9 exact records behind Eggs, Grade A, Large, egg white (USDA input 1124). Links are chosen by record identity, controlled contrast, formulation input, nutrient spread, or serving context—not by loose keyword similarity.

Equal-weight result

Shrimp toast is higher in total fat per 100 g

Shrimp toast reports 15.4 g versus 0 g for Egg white omelet, scrambled, or fried, no added fat: a 15.4 g difference when both are normalized to 100 g.

Inspect the underlying evidence

The denominator changes the answer

Egg, white, cooked, fat added is denser; Egg white omelet, scrambled, or fried, made with butter is higher in its source amount

Egg, white, cooked, fat added reports 100 kcal per 100 g and 36 kcal in USDA source amount (36 g). Egg white omelet, scrambled, or fried, made with butter reports a lower 97 kcal per 100 g but a higher 70 kcal in USDA source amount (72 g).

Choose the record before reading the number

Egg white omelet, scrambled, or fried, made with butter and Egg white omelet, scrambled, or fried, made with cooking spray are not interchangeable

The page keeps both records at the same 100 g denominator and makes Added-fat wording (added fat; butter versus cooking spray) the explicit record-description contrast. It does not show that the wording difference caused a nutrient difference. Pick the description that matches the food in front of you rather than averaging away the distinction.

Method and provenance

How this ingredient-centered page was calculated

Feast begins with its pinned 3,850-record USDA FoodData Central Survey Foods reference corpus for FNDDS 2021–2023. Each exact food profile retains its FDC identifier, source-food description, nutrient values, household measures, and positive-weight input-food rows. This page groups those input rows by the exact ingredient code 1124; it does not merge similar-looking ingredient names or infer synonyms.

The distinct-record count deduplicates by FDC food record. When the same code is listed more than once inside one source formulation, its input weights are added before the listed-weight share is calculated. Category counts also count each food once. The 25th percentile, median, and 75th percentile use the sorted one-share-per-food values with linear interpolation between adjacent ranks when a percentile falls between two records.

USDA’s current FNDDS documentation explains that many nutrient profiles are generated with calculation recipes designed to represent multiple variants, and that their input codes are not necessarily the exact ingredients in a retail product or an ingredient declaration. It also documents moisture and nutrient-retention adjustments. Feast therefore treats these rows as transparent source-calculation evidence—not as a reverse-engineered recipe.

The complete-food nutrient table uses each linked record’s available published per-100-gram values so the denominator remains consistent; its middle-50% ranges use the same interpolated percentile method. It is presented for record selection and comparison only. No nutrient value is reassigned to the ingredient, no causal effect is inferred, and no “healthy” score is manufactured from the collection.

How to apply the evidence to a meal

Use the ingredient as a discovery clue. Compare the linked record names, food categories, preparation wording, source formulation, and portion measures. If a close record exists, its complete profile can provide a defensible reference estimate. If the meal differs materially in cooking fat, sauce, ingredient ratios, or portion size, keep looking or use recipe weights, a package label, or an editable photo estimate instead.

These pages are educational source indexes. They do not provide medical advice, personalized nutrient targets, food-safety guidance, or a recipe. If a clinician has given you individualized dietary instructions, follow that guidance and use the most specific current source available for the food you actually consumed.
