Questions
How many WIC-eligible nutritionals items are on the Louisiana WIC list?
74 barcodes, in 38 subcategories as the state names them ("6PK 8-OZ PEDIASURE GROW AND GAIN ANY FLAVOR", "PEDIASURE STD 1.0", "PEDIASURE STD 1.0 W FBR"). The list is dated list for November 2026. Louisiana ranks 7 of 14 lists we compare by number of WIC-eligible nutritionals barcodes.
Which WIC-eligible nutritionals brands does Louisiana WIC list most?
By number of barcodes: PediaSure (39), Neocate (15), Boost (7). Store brands are on the list only where that store operates.
Are these WIC-eligible nutritionals items WIC approved in other states too?
97% of them are also on at least one other state's list; 2 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 "6PK 8-OZ PEDIASURE GROW AND GAIN ANY FLAVOR"). 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.
