The typical serving is a common amount used for the math, not a recommendation. Ounces and cups are rounded US equivalents; the values come from the database entry cited in the sources.

Satiety

Calculation: 1 (base) + 1 (low energy density: 145 kcal/100 g) + 0 (protein: 0.7 g/100 kcal) + 1 (fiber: 2.3 g/100 kcal) + 1 (solid food with 75.3 g of water) = 4.

The 1 to 5 score is our own estimate: it starts at 1 point, adds points for low energy density, for protein and fiber per 100 kcal, and for the water in solid foods, and subtracts points for drinks with calories. It is useful for comparing foods with each other; it is not a measurement in people.
