Silk is adding to its wide assortment of non-dairy milk alternatives with a new oat milk line called 'Oat Yeah.'
The all-new line includes a trio of products that are branded as 'The Plain One,' 'The Vanilla One' and 'The Chocolate One,' each of which is touted as a great product to consume on its own, stir into a cup of coffee or enjoy by the spoonful. The dairy-free "oatmilk" products were developed to have a smooth and creamy texture inspired by dairy milk, yet also satisfy the nutritional needs and match the environmental values of today's consumer.
The exceptional popularity of oat milk has led to shortages in many places around the world, as well as surging prices. Fortunately for those who are looking to get a taste of this new oatmilk product, a half-gallon carton is set to retail for less than $5.
