UNSPSC 50496857 Organic taro shoot purees is a Commodity code. Recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code do not reflect procurement of taro shoot purees or related specialty produce; instead, they document broad food-service acquisitions spanning shelf-stable proteins, canned goods, fresh and frozen produce, dairy, and consumable kitchen supplies for institutional cafeterias, state supported living centers, and school nutrition programs. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. Issuing bodies include state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county governments (Gwinnett County, Georgia; Ben Hill County, Georgia), and school districts (Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia).

Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with institutional food service procurement occurring across all three states. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (22 line items including prepared foods and food service supplies, bids due October 23, 2026); Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, canned proteins, and vegetables (quotes due October 19, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes meeting USDA Grade B or better, delivery to Salem (bids due June 19, 2026, with prior purchase at $13.75 per case); and Burke County Public Schools' school nutrition procurement for nearly 400 line items across five school locations in Waynesboro, Georgia (sealed bids due June 5, 2026).
