MUSH's Healthy Overnight Oats are Cold-Soaked and May Be Served Cold
Laura McQuarrie — November 29, 2017 — Lifestyle
There are plenty of flavored single-serve oatmeal products on the market, but at a minimum, they require the addition of hot water before eating—the healthy overnight oats from MUSH set themselves apart by being cold-soaked and ready-to-eat straight out of the package.
MUSH makes cold oatmeal in flavors like Apple Crisp, Vanilla Bean, Dark Cacao and Wild Blueberry that are packaged in what the brand refers to as "pods." As a ready-to-eat product, MUSH is packaged with a spoon for the convenience of on-the-go eating.
Unlike many oatmeal products on the market, the ones from MUSH are free from preservatives, artificial flavors, colors and are not processed with heat pasteurization. As it stands, MUSH is currently working towards getting its products certified gluten-free.
