Questions
How many cheese items are on the Michigan WIC list?
300 barcodes, in 3 subcategories as the state names them ("All other cheese", "Low fat Cheese", "Low Sodium Cheese"). The list is dated run date October 1, 2026. Michigan ranks 13 of 14 lists we compare by number of cheese barcodes.
Which cheese brands does Michigan WIC list most?
By number of barcodes: Dairy Fresh (18), Kraft (16), Yoder's (16). Store brands are on the list only where that store operates.
Are these cheese items WIC approved in other states too?
57% of them are also on at least one other state's list; 129 are only on the Michigan 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 "All other cheese"). How many you can buy each month is on your WIC benefits, not on the product list. For the full rules, check the Michigan WIC shopping guide or ask your WIC clinic.
