My state is California. Can I still buy Walnut Creek?

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 Walnut Creek 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.
