We confront Cardassian models with recent observational data. These models can be viewed either as purely phenomenological modifications of the Friedmann equation, or as arising from cosmic fluids with non-standard properties. In the first case, we find that the models are consistent with the data for a wide range of parameters but no significant preference over the Lambda-CDM model is found. In the latter case we find that the fact that the sound speed is non-zero in these models makes them inconsistent with the galaxy power spectrum from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.
