The variety of organic rutabagas known as organic angela rutabagas which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50495602 Organic angela rutabaga purees is a Commodity code that does not map to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — specialized organic rutabaga products — appears unrelated to the work actually being solicited under this code number. Recent opportunities tagged to UNSPSC 50495602 instead reflect broad consumable and food-service procurement spanning prepared foods, fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, condiments, canned goods, dry staples, and food service supplies. State and local issuing bodies — including Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Oregon Department of Corrections, school districts in Georgia, and state prison and correctional facilities — are soliciting these items under IFB, IWQ, and sealed-bid notice types. The work ranges from dedicated institutional food service contracts (state supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs) to general-purpose food and consumables procurement for campus canteens and food distribution.
