Bread: Connecticut vs other lists

Barcodes of bread on each list. A longer list is not a more generous program: some states list every size and store brand, others list fewer barcodes.

Questions

How many bread items are on the Connecticut WIC list?

77 barcodes, in 2 subcategories as the state names them ("Bread - 100% Whole Wheat", "Bread - 100% Whole Grain"). The list is dated file posted June 4, 2026. Connecticut ranks 7 of 14 lists we compare by number of bread barcodes.

Which bread brands does Connecticut WIC list most?

By number of barcodes: Pepperidge Farm (11), Stop & Shop (10), Arnold (3). Store brands are on the list only where that store operates.

Are these bread items WIC approved in other states too?

82% of them are also on at least one other state's list; 14 are only on the Connecticut list (mostly regional store brands). Each row shows how many of the 14 lists include that barcode.

Does the list say which size I can buy?

The state's subcategory names often carry the size or type rule (for example "Bread - 100% Whole Wheat"). How many you can buy each month is on your WIC benefits, not on the product list. For the full rules, check the Connecticut WIC shopping guide or ask your WIC clinic.
