Source and method

Nutrient values are from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy (April 2018 release, public domain), record 173009: "Cereals, CREAM OF WHEAT, 2 1/2 minute cook time, cooked with water, microwaved, without salt". Values are stored per 100 g exactly as USDA reports them and scaled to each serving by weight. The Nutrition Facts panel applies the FDA rounding rules in 21 CFR 101.9; tables and text show the scaled amounts at reading precision, so a figure can differ slightly from the panel. A nutrient USDA does not report for this food is shown as not reported, never as a guessed value.
