Women in the national Women, Infants and Children program (WIC) can now buy vegetables, fruits, whole grains and breads, and other proteins like canned beans, with their vouchers. Until now, the vouchers could only be used for cereals, dried beans, peanut butter, milk, cheese, eggs and juice. The new regulations does reduce the amount of cheese, milk and eggs that can be purchased, and requires the participant to buy 1 percent or fat-free milk if they have a child over 2 years of age. WIC is a program for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding and moms with children up to age 5 considered low income.
