Questions

Is General Mills WIC approved in every state?

General Mills items are on all 14 lists we compare, but not every General Mills product: each state picks its own flavors and sizes. New York lists the most (9).

Which General Mills products are on the most lists?

General Mills Total Whole Grain 16oz (14 of 14); General Mills Bluey 12oz (10 of 14); General Mills Bluey 18oz (10 of 14).

My state is not shown. Can I still buy General Mills?

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 General Mills size work and another not?

WIC lists authorize exact barcodes. The same breakfast cereal 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.
