Big changes are coming to the Ohio WIC Authorized Food List!

Starting TODAY, some items will be added and others removed across ALL food categories. One important change to note: chocolate milk will no longer be an approved WIC item.

Before you shop, be sure to check your benefits using the WIC Shopper App to see what’s currently approved and avoid any surprises at checkout.

Getting started with WIC is worth it! Hear from a mom in Washington about why WIC is
important to her family!
“WIC matters to my family because it helps us get the nutrients we need for our meals. As a
new family of 3, it helped us have a well-balanced diet. It also helped us not indulge in
unhealthy foods. It helped us to get the proper foods we need over the past year for our son.
This included formula, baby food, produce, any and all food from each stage of our son’s eating
journey! Our family really enjoys WIC!”
- WIC mom from Washington and member of the Swinomish Tribe
