UNSPSC 50484507: Split yellow lentil purees

The variety of lentils known as split yellow lentils which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50484507 Split yellow lentil purees, a Commodity code, represents a specialized food ingredient with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The source records show no recent opportunities specifically soliciting split yellow lentil purees. The code sits within a broader family of legume and vegetable-based food products that state and local agencies acquire as components of larger food service contracts, but split yellow lentil purees themselves do not appear as standalone line items or distinct procurement focuses in the recent opportunities block.

State and local food procurement at the commodity level typically consolidates specialized ingredients into broader category bids managed by school districts, corrections facilities, and health and human services agencies. When legume-based products or purees surface in recent solicitations—such as the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food procurements (HHS0017449, HHS0016792, HHS0016792V2), the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned-goods bidding, or school district grocery and produce contracts across Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia—they are bundled with hundreds of other items rather than procured as standalone products. The absence of a dedicated split yellow lentil puree opportunity in the recent posting block suggests either low demand, incorporation into broader commingled food service contracts that do not break out this item separately, or use of standing cooperative purchasing agreements that operate outside traditional open-bid cycles. Business development professionals evaluating this code should monitor whether health systems, correctional facilities, or school nutrition programs in states with higher vegetarian and plant-based meal adoption begin issuing split-category produce or legume procurements, but current activity does not support pursuing this code as a near-term opportunity.
