Questions
How many cheese items are on the Louisiana WIC list?
425 barcodes, in 11 subcategories as the state names them ("CHEESE - 8 OZ BLOCK - LOW COST", "16-OZ BLOCK CHEESE", "CHEESE - 8 OZ SLICED - LOW COST"). The list is dated list for November 2026. Louisiana ranks 12 of 14 lists we compare by number of cheese barcodes.
Which cheese brands does Louisiana WIC list most?
By number of barcodes: Kraft (43), Great Value (34), Best Yet (31). Store brands are on the list only where that store operates.
Are these cheese items WIC approved in other states too?
84% of them are also on at least one other state's list; 66 are only on the Louisiana 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 "CHEESE - 8 OZ BLOCK - LOW COST"). How many you can buy each month is on your WIC benefits, not on the product list. For the full rules, check the Louisiana WIC shopping guide or ask your WIC clinic.
