About heading 2005

Other vegetables prepared or preserved otherwise than by vinegar or acetic acid, not frozen, other than products of heading 2006

Heading 2005 covers vegetables that are prepared or preserved by means other than vinegar or acetic acid and are not frozen, so it is the canned and jarred vegetable heading. The lines are split first by specific vegetable (homogenized vegetables, potatoes, peas, beans, asparagus, olives, sweet corn) and then by a residual group for other vegetables and mixtures. Olives carry the most detailed breakdown, keyed to color, pitting or stuffing, container drained weight and whether the product is in a saline solution.
