UNSPSC 50494407: Organic split yellow lentil purees

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

UNSPSC 50494407 Organic split yellow lentil purees is a Commodity code that covers specialized legume products for state and local institutional food service operations. However, the recent opportunities recorded under this code show minimal direct activity for organic split yellow lentil purees specifically. Instead, state and local governments purchasing under broader food-service UNSPSC categories are buying shelf-stable proteins, fresh and frozen produce, dairy products, condiments, sauces, canned vegetables, and related consumable items for cafeterias, state facilities, and institutional dining programs. The code's nominal scope—organic lentil purees—represents a niche line item within much larger food-service procurements that agencies typically bundle with dozens or hundreds of other commodities rather than solicit separately.

State and local issuing bodies include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (the most frequent buyer in recent records, posting multiple food service solicitations for state supported living centers), county school boards across Georgia (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the State of Illinois. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with additional recent procurement in Oregon and Illinois. Representative opportunities include IFB HHS0018082 (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, due October 23, 2026), IWQ 140229 (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and sauces, quotes due October 19, 2026), and IFB 304T-26-300CF (Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas, due May 4, 2026). Because the commodity code names a specific product—organic split yellow lentil purees—rather than a general food-service category, opportunities posted under this code that bundle dozens of unrelated items signal either miscoding or that lentil purees appear as a minor line item within larger institutional food buys. Vendors targeting this code should expect to compete on price and delivery reliability within aggregated food-service bids rather than to find standalone lentil-puree procurements.
