Eat & Beyond Global has announced that its brand Beyond Moo Foods is launching an all-new yogurt product called 'Oatgurt.' The single-serve yogurt beverage is being targeted toward kids and will be made available at 116 retailers nationwide, including Foodland, Healthy Planet, and Choices Market.
'Oatgurt' is a yogurt drink made from oats that are dairy-free, gluten-free, low in sugar, and packed with probiotics, calcium, and vitamins. As of right now, there are two flavors for shoppers to choose from: cherry and vanilla.
“Oat-based dairy alternatives have quickly become a favorite among consumers, and that includes parents who are interested in integrating plant-based foods into their children’s diets as well,” added Michael Aucoin, CEO of Eat & Beyond. “I expect to see this trend continue to gain steam beyond the milk category."
