What it is

Organic butternut squash is a variety of winter squash grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. It is a cultivar of Cucurbita moschata, native to North America. The squash is harvested when mature and can be stored for several months.

Why it's used

Butternut squash is used as a vegetable in cooking, providing a sweet, nutty flavor and a smooth texture when pureed. Manufacturers use it in soups, purees, baked goods, and side dishes. Its natural sweetness and vibrant color also make it appealing in baby food and savory snacks.

Health notes

International bodies like EFSA and JECFA have evaluated squash as a food ingredient. Evidence suggests that diets rich in vegetables like butternut squash are associated with good health, but no specific health claims are made for isolated consumption.
