Questions

Is Cappiello WIC approved in every state?

No single answer: Cappiello items are on 3 of the 14 lists we compare and on none of the lists for California, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oregon, Utah, Washington, ITCA (Arizona tribal) (as of each list's date). States pick their own brands and sizes, so check the product table for your state's column.

Which Cappiello products are on the most lists?

Cappiello Natural Part Skim Mozzarella Block 16oz (3 of 14); Cappiello Whole Milk Mozzarella Block 16oz (3 of 14); Cappiello Mozzarella Slices 16oz (2 of 14).

My state is California. Can I still buy Cappiello?

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 Cappiello size work and another not?

WIC lists authorize exact barcodes. The same cheese 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.
