What is included?

The exact descriptions define the topic.

USDA places these records in the “Pizza” survey-food category. Within Feast’s broader navigation, they appear under Mixed dishes (86 records). The category label is useful for discovery, but it does not mean every record uses the same recipe, brand, cooking method, or portion.

The current collection includes Pizza, cheese and vegetables, gluten-free thick crust; Pizza, cheese, from restaurant or fast food, medium crust; Pizza with pepperoni, from restaurant or fast food, thick crust; Pizza, with pepperoni, from school lunch, medium crust; Pizza, cheese and vegetables, whole wheat thick crust; Pizza rolls. Those examples show why the exact wording matters. The complete alphabetical catalog farther down the page preserves all 86 descriptions instead of replacing them with one generic average.

A comparatively wide central spread

Dietary fiber: 2.2 g calculated median

Among 86 “Pizza” records, the central interval for dietary fiber extends from 1.3 g to 3.5 g per 100 grams. The complete observed span is 0.7 g to 4.3 g.

10th percentile: The calculated boundary falls between 1.2 g in White pizza, cheese, with vegetables, thin crust and 1.3 g in Pizza rolls; it is not itself an observed record value.

90th percentile: Pizza, cheese and vegetables, whole wheat thick crust reports 3.5 g, exactly matching this calculated boundary.

Percentile positions describe this finite source set; they are not labels of overall food quality.

A comparatively wide central spread

Potassium: 189 mg calculated median

Among 86 “Pizza” records, the central interval for potassium extends from 146 mg to 310 mg per 100 grams. The complete observed span is 111 mg to 385 mg.

10th percentile: The calculated boundary falls between 140 mg in Pizza, with meat, gluten-free thick crust and 152 mg in Pizza, cheese, from frozen, thick crust; it is not itself an observed record value.

90th percentile: The calculated boundary falls between 308 mg in Pizza with pepperoni, from school lunch, thick crust and 311 mg in Topping from vegetable pizza; it is not itself an observed record value.

Percentile positions describe this finite source set; they are not labels of overall food quality.

A comparatively wide central spread

Total sugars: 3.4 g calculated median

Among 86 “Pizza” records, the central interval for total sugars extends from 2.9 g to 5 g per 100 grams. The complete observed span is 2.6 g to 7.6 g.

10th percentile: Pizza, cheese, stuffed crust reports 2.9 g, exactly matching this calculated boundary.

90th percentile: The calculated boundary falls between 5 g in Pizza, cheese, from school lunch, thick crust and 5 g in Pizza, no cheese, thin crust; it is not itself an observed record value.

Percentile positions describe this finite source set; they are not labels of overall food quality.

The three callouts above are the widest central spreads relative to each metric’s midpoint, with a minimum scale applied so near-zero medians do not dominate. The complete table remains the primary record of all ten metrics.

Preparation language in the records

Source descriptions reveal meaningful distinctions.

The counts below report words and phrases that appear explicitly in the 86 USDA descriptions. They can help narrow a search to a closer record. They do not prove that the named preparation caused a nutrient difference, because these survey-food records are not controlled experiments.

fast food

15 records use this wording, including Pizza with meat and vegetables, from restaurant or fast food, medium crust; Pizza with meat and vegetables, from restaurant or fast food, thick crust; Pizza with meat and vegetables, from restaurant or fast food, thin crust.

Portion context

Household measures answer a different question than 100 grams.

86 of 86 records (100%) include at least one named measure in the source data. Together those records provide 847 usable named measures.

A cup, slice, piece, sandwich, fillet, or fluid ounce can represent a different amount of food. Even two measures with the same label may have different gram weights across records. Open the closest profile and use its listed weight instead of transferring a measure from another record.

USDA’s representative source amount is also not necessarily what a visitor ate. For equal-weight comparison, use the 100-gram table. For meal estimation, match the exact description first, then match the amount, and finally account for additions or preparation details absent from the selected record.

USDA shorthand: NFS means “not further specified.” It preserves uncertainty in the reported description rather than identifying one exact size or product.

Common named measures in this topic

Choosing a closer record

Use a sequence, not a guess disguised as precision.

  1. 01

    Match the exact description

    Look for the closest food name, preparation, additions, and context. “Pizza” is the collection label; the individual description is the actual reference.

  2. 02

    Compare on equal weight

    Use the per-100-gram values when comparing two records. This keeps the denominator fixed and prevents different source-serving weights from masquerading as a food difference.

  3. 03

    Scale the closest listed measure

    Open the profile, select a named household measure when one fits, or enter a gram estimate. Treat scaled decimals as arithmetic from the source—not greater certainty about the plate.

  4. 04

    Add missing context

    Brand, recipe, cooking fat, sauce, toppings, substitutions, and edible portion can move the result. A current package label or weighed recipe may be more specific than a generic survey-food record.

Controlled contrasts

Related records worth comparing directly

These pairs passed Feast’s similarity, material-difference, and diversity screens. Each page keeps weight fixed at 100 grams, shows both exact source descriptions and formulations, and avoids treating the records as a controlled experiment.

Boundaries and provenance

What this collection can—and cannot—tell you.

This page summarizes USDA FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS) records from 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024. FNDDS supplies the nutrient profiles used for foods reported in What We Eat in America, the dietary component of NHANES. Each value here remains tied to one exact FDC record; the complete catalog provides direct links so the source can be checked rather than taken on trust.

USDA describes FNDDS nutrient profiles as average values for generic representations of foods likely consumed in the United States—not profiles of specific products. Its gram weights for portions are likewise estimates for groups of foods and may not cover every available size. That distinction matters: a database measure is evidence for scaling a plausible match, not proof that the same weight or formulation was on a visitor’s plate.

The records are not laboratory measurements of every possible “Pizza” preparation. Restaurant recipes change, packaged products are reformulated, homemade ingredient ratios vary, and cooking can change water weight. A photo also cannot reliably reveal every hidden ingredient or gram weight. The central range describes variation among the records selected for this topic, not uncertainty around a single meal.

The median is not a default calorie count. The 10th and 90th percentiles are not lower and upper recommendations. The minimum and maximum are not promises that every real version falls inside the observed span. These statistics are tools for navigating a source collection while keeping the denominator, record name, and normal recipe variation visible.

Nutrient values do not establish whether a food is appropriate for a particular person or condition. This wiki does not diagnose deficiencies, prescribe targets, or replace advice from a qualified professional. If accuracy matters for an allergy, medical diet, or clinician-directed limit, use verified ingredient information and the guidance relevant to that situation.

Why no overall ranking appears.

A record can report more protein and also differ in sodium, fiber, energy, fat, portion weight, or ingredients. Choosing one metric as a universal score would hide those tradeoffs and imply a value judgment the data cannot support. The alphabetical catalog and side-by-side statistics are intentionally descriptive.

For primary-source context, read USDA’s FNDDS 2021–2023 documentation. For Feast’s import, filtering, portion-scaling, Daily Value, and uncertainty rules, read the nutrition-page methodology. For an exact item, use its profile and FoodData Central link rather than citing this collection-level summary alone.

Common questions

Using the “Pizza” collection responsibly

Is the median the expected nutrition for my food?

No. It is the middle value among these 86 source records on a 100-gram basis. Your recipe, brand, preparation, and portion may align more closely with one specific record or may fall outside this collection.

Why compare 100 grams instead of one serving?

Source servings can have different gram weights and measure labels. Holding weight at 100 grams makes concentration comparable. After choosing a record, its household measures are more useful for estimating the amount actually eaten.

Does the upper end of a nutrient range mean “better”?

No. The position only describes that nutrient within this source collection. It does not evaluate the whole food, determine an appropriate portion, or account for an individual’s needs.

Which number should I log?

Start with the record whose exact wording most closely matches the food. Use a listed measure or gram estimate, then add missing recipe or preparation context. Keep the result as an estimate unless you have a current label or weighed recipe.

Inspect the underlying evidence

The denominator changes the answer

Pizza, cheese, from restaurant or fast food, medium crust is denser; Pizza, cheese, with vegetables, from restaurant or fast food, thick crust is higher in its source amount

Pizza, cheese, from restaurant or fast food, medium crust reports 2.3 g per 100 g and 5.5 g in USDA source amount (238 g). Pizza, cheese, with vegetables, from restaurant or fast food, thick crust reports a lower 2.1 g per 100 g but a higher 6.3 g in USDA source amount (298 g).

Record identity is part of the estimate

Distinguish “Pizza, cheese and vegetables, gluten-free thick crust” from “Pizza, no cheese, thin crust”

These are separate USDA records with separate formulations or survey descriptions. Match preparation, additions, and the named household amount before borrowing either record’s nutrients.
