UNSPSC 50492303: Organic skunk cabbage purees

The variety of organic cabbages known as organic skunk cabbage which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50492303 Organic skunk cabbage purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual food procurement activity state and local governments are conducting. The recent opportunities posted under this code show no purchases of organic skunk cabbage purees or any variant thereof; instead, the code appears mislabeled or misapplied to general food consumables, prepared foods, and food service supplies for state-supported living centers, county senior services, school nutrition programs, and correctional facilities. The scope of work being solicited includes shelf-stable products (canned vegetables, proteins, grains, condiments), fresh and frozen items (produce, meats, dairy), prepared foods (french fries, chicken wings, burritos), and ancillary food service supplies (containers, napkins, straws, hairnets). The issuing bodies are primarily state health and human services agencies, county boards of commissioners managing nutrition programs, independent school districts, state departments of corrections, and state comptroller procurement divisions acting on behalf of operating agencies. Texas leads the recent activity with multiple Health and Human Services Commission solicitations for state-supported living centers and state hospitals, supplemented by Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria procurement and Oregon Department of Corrections produce orders.

Recent representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (posted October 16, 2026, due October 23, 2026) for 22 line items of consumable foods and food service supplies for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote PE77023NONST2027000000782 (posted October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services; and the Oregon Department of Corrections' solicitation S2910000017145 (posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026) for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes with an Oregon-fabricated goods preference and prior reference pricing of $13.75 per case. Other recent activity spans Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026) seeking school nutrition products across four facilities, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food procurement covering approximately 382 line items across five geographic warehouse areas (IFB 304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026). The code shows material recent activity in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon but little or no correlation to its nominal commodity description.
