Questions

Is Wel Pac WIC approved in every state?

No single answer: Wel Pac items are on 7 of the 14 lists we compare and on none of the lists for Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, 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 Wel Pac products are on the most lists?

Wel Pac Frz Edamame In Pods 16oz (5 of 14); Wel Pac Frz Shelled Edamame 16oz (5 of 14); Wel Pac Bamboo Shoots 15oz (4 of 14).

My state is Louisiana. Can I still buy Wel Pac?

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 Wel Pac size work and another not?

WIC lists authorize exact barcodes. The same fruits & vegetables 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.
