Every figure is computed from the two foods' USDA values, rounded as printed above. A difference is stated only when it is at least 10% of the larger value and clears a small minimum for the nutrient, so tiny gaps are not dressed up as findings.
Our take
Ribeye is the richer cut, with more calories and fat per 100 g, while sirloin is leaner and has more protein. The cooking methods in the data differ slightly (grilled and broiled), so read small gaps with care.
If you are swapping one for the other, compare by the amount you actually eat, which is the per-portion table above, not only the per-100 g table: the two foods are rarely eaten by the same weight.
