If you have questions about juice covered by WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) program, please note that the program provides nutritious foods to pregnant women, new mothers, and young children. One of these essential food items is juice.

WIC offers juices in various forms for individuals with disabilities who require alternative means of communication. These include Braille, large print, audiotape, American Sign Language, etc. If you are a person with a disability and need assistance, please contact the Agency (State or Local) where you applied for benefits.

The USDA's civil rights regulations prohibit discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex, disability, age, or reprisal or retaliation for prior civil rights activity in any program or activity conducted or funded by the Department of Agriculture. In accordance with Federal civil rights law and U.S. policy, the USDA ensures that all its programs are accessible to individuals with disabilities.

Now, let's dive into the WIC juice guidelines. The program does not cover juices made from organic ingredients, pouches, added cereal, meat, starches, sugar, salt, or DHA dinners, desserts, yogurt blends, and 2-oz packs of infant fruit and vegetable puree. Similarly, it excludes juices with any oil or brine vinegar pickles or pickled vegetables, creamed vegetables, added fats or oils, pizza or pasta sauce, added sugars or artificial sweeteners.

On the other hand, WIC does cover whole, diced, crushed, or stewed tomatoes, tomato sauce, paste, or puree (with herbs or seasoning allowed), salsa or picante, and unsweetened applesauce with cinnamon allowed. Additionally, it covers a variety of vegetables, including green peas, green/snap/wax/ yellow beans.

When shopping for WIC-approved juices, look for brands such as Kroger, Roundy's, Meijer, Schnucks, Hy-Top, Sams Choice, Signature Select, Fareway, Dierbergs, IGA, Best Choice, Our Family, Market Pantry, Food Club, Essential Everyday, HyVee, Great Value, Tipton Grove, Natures Nectar, Gold Emblem, Kedem, Liebers, and Harvest Classic.
