The variety of sorrel known as garden sorrel that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50426002 Dried garden sorrel is a Commodity code that in practice captures state and local procurement of dried legumes and bulk institutional food staples for correctional facilities, school meal programs, and state agencies. Recent solicitations under this code show state and local buyers purchasing dried beans — kidney beans, pinto beans, black beans, and red beans — in bulk quantities ranging from hundreds of bags to tens of thousands of pounds, typically meeting USDA grading standards and triple-cleaned specifications for institutional cooking and meal service. The issuing bodies span state departments of corrections, state purchasing offices, cities administering child and adult care food programs, and state procurement divisions acting on behalf of criminal justice agencies. Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice appear as repeat institutional buyers; city and school-district meal programs also participate.
