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 spans food procurement across state agencies, local school districts, and institutional facilities, but the recent state and local opportunity block shows no solicitations specifically targeting lentil purees or related legume products. The opportunities posted under this code cover broad food supply categories—canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, cafeteria proteins, dairy, grains, and consumable supplies—none of which align with the specialized scope of organic split yellow lentil purees as a discrete commodity line item. School nutrition programs, correctional facilities, state health and human services institutions, and Veterans homes represent the primary buyer types in the recent record, and these entities solicit food through multi-category RFPs and IFBs that encompass hundreds of line items organized by product family rather than targeting single legume products for standalone procurement.

The geographic spread of recent food procurement activity spans Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia, with school districts and state agencies in the South and Pacific Northwest showing the most sustained activity. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 11, 2026), the Ben Hill County Schools food bid covering multiple product categories (due June 15, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomato procurement seeking 7,616 cases (due June 19, 2026). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual solicitation content suggests this Commodity code may be overtagged in the state and local database; vendors pursuing legume or specialty ingredient opportunities should verify direct line-item inclusion in multi-category food RFPs rather than relying on code classification alone, and may find more targeted activity in commodity-specific buys or institutional food service contracts that explicitly name pulse products.
