About this file
This is a National Menu Specifications Quote Sheet for MDC Brooklyn, Fiscal Year 2027, First Quarter, containing 71 line items across multiple product categories for federal food procurement.
The solicitation requests quotes for a comprehensive range of food commodities organized into the following categories: beans (8 items), rice (1 item), pasta (7 items), corn meal/flour/dry milk (4 items), cereal (2 items), peanut butter (3 items), soy and no flesh products (2 items), shortening and oil (1 item), butter and margarine (2 items), dressings/vinegar/condiments (3 items), jelly/sugars/syrup (3 items), pizza/taco shells/tortillas (4 items), tomato products (5 items), vegetables-canned (5 items), sauces (3 items), soup bases (3 items), meats-beef (4 items), meats-chicken (5 items), meats-fish (1 item), meats-turkey (1 item), cheese (4 items), and add-ons (1 item). Total ordering quantities range from 56 cases for mushrooms to 600,000 individual packets for jelly. All items must comply with National Menu Specifications; specification substitutions are not accepted. The NFSA/Chief Dietitian makes final determinations on product compliance. Bidders must provide pricing per unit in the "Price Per Unit" column. The document specifies detailed federal standards for most items, including CID references, grades, packaging requirements, and sourcing restrictions—notably that products must originate from the United States or Canada unless otherwise specified. Several high-volume items require specific certifications (Kosher marking for certain products) or delivery schedules (beef and chicken items specify two separate deliveries).
