UNSPSC 50494021: Organic sage purees

The variety of organic herbs known as organic sage which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50494021 Organic sage purees is a Commodity code that names a single food ingredient, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it do not reflect procurement of organic sage purees specifically. Instead, they show state and local governments buying broad food service consumables—frozen proteins, canned vegetables, dairy products, fresh produce, condiments, and food service supplies—for institutional dining operations at state facilities, county social services, school districts, and correctional systems. The issuing bodies span state health and human services departments (Texas HHS Commission, Illinois), counties (Gwinnett County, Georgia), independent school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and others in Georgia), state correctional systems (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and specialized state agencies. Most activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The code appears to be a mismatch with actual procurement activity—no recent opportunities specify organic sage purees as a line item.

The representative recent opportunities show this misalignment plainly. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0018082 (posted October 16, 2026, due October 23, 2026) for consumable foods and food service supplies for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center, encompassing 22 line items of prepared foods and containers. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted IWQ 140229 (posted October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026) requesting approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, and vegetables. Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia issued IFB #26271 (posted May 19, 2026, due June 15, 2026) for school nutrition program groceries across four schools, emphasizing Buy American compliance and whole grain and low-sodium options. Oregon Department of Corrections posted an IFB (posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026) for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes to USDA Grade B or better, with a previous purchase price of $13.75 per case. The code shows little relevant recent activity and does not align with typical procurement patterns for the specific commodity it nominally names.
