Questions

Is Quaker WIC approved in every state?

Quaker items are on all 14 lists we compare, but not every Quaker product: each state picks its own flavors and sizes. New York lists the most (37).

Which Quaker products are on the most lists?

Quaker Life Original Multigrain Cereal 13oz (14 of 14); Quaker Life Original Multigrain Cereal 18oz (14 of 14); Quaker Oatmeal Squares Brown Sugar 14.5 (14 of 14).

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

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 Quaker 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.
