Source: FDA 2,000-calorie Daily Value reference — %DV computed against the USDA per-100g standardization basis.

How serving-size math works on this page: USDA stores all nutrient amounts on a per-100g basis for consistency across the catalog. Because the manufacturer declared a 28g serving for this product, the headline values (calories, macros) are multiplied by 28/100 = 0.280 to render the same values you would read on the FDA Nutrition Facts panel. The page surfaces both bases for full transparency.
