UNSPSC 50494101: Organic curly kale purees

The variety of organic kale known as organic curly kale which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50494101 Organic curly kale purees is a Commodity code, but state and local procurement activity under it shows negligible recent engagement. The nine most recent opportunities posted under or adjacent to this code between May and October 2026 span prepared foods (french fries, hashbrowns, chicken wings, sauces), canned and frozen vegetables (tomatoes, mixed frozen items), shelf-stable staples (peanut butter, jelly, rice, pasta, canned proteins), dairy products, proteins, and food service consumables—none naming organic curly kale purees or kale products of any kind. The code designation appears misaligned with the actual procurement activity being executed, suggesting either classifier error or dormant category status in recent state and local solicitations.

The issuing bodies span state health and human services departments (Texas HHS Commission, Illinois, Oregon, Georgia state government), county and municipal school districts (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Comptroller), and corrections and supported living centers. Geographic concentration is evident in Texas (five opportunities), Georgia (three), and Oregon (two), with isolated activity in Illinois. Representative recent procurements include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (response due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's informal written quote IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, and canned vegetables (response due October 19, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes meeting USDA Grade B or better with a June 19, 2026 closing. These solicitations demonstrate routine procurement of bulk food and consumables for institutional food service, but organic kale purees do not appear as a line item in any posted opportunity.
