Check the size!
When shopping for WIC-approved food items, the container size is important. For example, when the WIC Approved Food List states a half gallon container of lactose-free milk is allowed, you won’t be able to use benefits to purchase a 52 oz container of lactose-free milk.
Unsure of the approved size? The WIC Approved Food List is located at https://health.mo.gov/living/families/wic/approved-food-list.php and on the WICShopper app.
Comment here or contact your WIC local agency if you have questions!

Your WIC benefits cover many whole grain products! Whole grains are rich in fiber and nutrients for a healthy family diet. Look for WIC-approved options like 100% whole wheat bread/pasta, tortillas, brown rice, and oatmeal. Always check your local WIC guide or app for approved brands and sizes.

Don't let the sun trick you! ☀️ Many toddlers need more Vitamin D.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a Vitamin D supplement if your infant/toddler is:
1. Breastfed
2. Drinking less than 32 oz of formula or fortified milk daily
