Questions

Is Boost WIC approved in every state?

Boost items are on all 14 lists we compare, but not every Boost product: each state picks its own flavors and sizes. Michigan lists the most (84).

Which Boost products are on the most lists?

Campoverde Frz F and V Blenders Energy Boost 32oz (12 of 14); Boost Kid Essentials 1.5 chocolate 8 oz RTF (8 of 14); Boost Kid Essentials 1.5 strawberry 8 oz RTF (8 of 14).

My state is not shown. Can I still buy Boost?

A product that is not on your state's list will usually be declined at the register, but lists change: New York's list itself says "There may be eligible products that are not on this list." Look for the WIC shelf tag, scan it in your state's WIC shopping app, or ask your WIC clinic.

Why does one Boost size work and another not?

WIC lists authorize exact barcodes. The same medical foods & shakes in a different size, pack or flavor has a different UPC, and many states allow only certain container sizes. Compare the UPC on your package with the UPC shown here.
