Questions

Is MaraNatha WIC approved in every state?

No single answer: MaraNatha items are on 6 of the 14 lists we compare and on none of the lists for Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Utah, 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 MaraNatha products are on the most lists?

MaraNatha Creamy no stir Peanut Butter 16oz (6 of 14); MARANATHA Natural Crunchy Peanut Butter 18oz (2 of 14); MaraNatha Organic Creamy Peanut Butter 16oz (2 of 14).

My state is Louisiana. Can I still buy MaraNatha?

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 MaraNatha size work and another not?

WIC lists authorize exact barcodes. The same peanut butter 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.
