Questions
How many infant formula items are on the New York WIC list?
41 barcodes, in 32 subcategories as the state names them ("EleCare Jr. Powder", "Pregestimil 24 Ready to Feed", "Phenex 1 Powder"). The list is dated valid as of November 5, 2026. New York ranks 8 of 14 lists we compare by number of infant formula barcodes.
Which infant formula brands does New York WIC list most?
By number of barcodes: Enfamil (14), Similac (8), EleCare (7). Store brands are on the list only where that store operates.
Are these infant formula items WIC approved in other states too?
98% of them are also on at least one other state's list; 1 are only on the New York 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 "EleCare Jr. Powder"). How many you can buy each month is on your WIC benefits, not on the product list. For the full rules, check the New York WIC shopping guide or ask your WIC clinic.
