UNSPSC 50625501: Non GMO long white potato purees

The variety of Non GMO potatoes known as Non GMO long white potatoes. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50625501 Non GMO long white potato purees is a Commodity code that covers prepared potato products for institutional food service, though recent state and local solicitations reveal that purchasing under this code encompasses broader fresh and processed food procurement for cafeterias, kitchens, and food-service operations. State and local governments soliciting under this code include state health and human services agencies operating state supported living centers and psychiatric hospitals, county boards of commissioners and school districts, departments of corrections, and independent school districts.
