UNSPSC 50494512: Organic chinese lettuce purees

The variety of organic lettuce known as organic chinese lettuces which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50494512 Organic chinese lettuce purees (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally covers organic lettuce puree products, but the recent opportunities posted under this code do not include lettuce purees or any products matching that description. The most recent opportunities tagged to this code comprise institutional food service procurements spanning prepared and frozen foods (chicken wings, french fries, hashbrown patties), shelf-stable staples (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, canned vegetables and tomatoes), and food service supplies (containers, napkins, hairnets, trays, straws). None of these solicitations explicitly request organic chinese lettuce purees or any puree products.

The opportunities posted show issuing bodies across state-supported living centers, county social services, school districts, and state corrections departments in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with solicitation types including IFB, IWQ, and informal quotes. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted two separate consumables procurements for Lufkin State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0018082 due October 23, 2026, and IFB HHS0017449 for El Paso State Supported Living Center due July 13, 2026); Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable foods (IWQ 140229 due October 19, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (IFB S2910000017145 due June 19, 2026); and school districts in Georgia and Texas posted food bids spanning produce, proteins, dairy, and prepared items. The code's nominal scope and actual buying activity diverge significantly, suggesting the code assignment reflects a cataloging error rather than legitimate procurement demand for organic lettuce purees under this UNSPSC category in state and local markets today.
