    Silk Oatmilk Gives Us Something New to Shout About

    0
    By Alisa Fleming on October 2, 2020 Dairy-Free Milk Substitute Reviews, Product Reviews

    Every time I saw a picture of Silk Oat Yeah Oatmilk, I thought of the Kool-Aid man busting through a wall, shouting “Oh Yeah!” Apparently, the people at Silk also realized the odd correlation to those sugar packets, because they’ve dropped the overly enthusiastic name. It’s now simply called Silk Oatmilk, and it’s now available in four versatile varieties.

    Silk Oatmilk Gives Us Something New to Shout About

    According to Silk, you can feel good about enjoying their oatmilk for sustainability, too. It reportedly has a smaller footprint than most other types of milk alternatives, which have a baby footprint compared to dairy milk. But how does it taste? You can leave your own rating and review below!

    Original (formula updated October 2020)

    The subtle flavor of this simple oatmilk might make the transition easy for dairy-free newbies. It’s fairly neutral in taste, and is free of added sugars. The 4 grams of sugar in each serving is from the oats themselves.

    Silk Oat Milk Review with Ingredients, Allergen Info an More. Plus, leave your own rating! Dairy-free, plant-based, nut-free, and soy-free.Ingredients: oatmilk (filtered water, oat concentrate), sunflower oil, vitamin and mineral blend (calcium carbonate, vitamin a palmitate, vitamin d2, riboflavin [b2], vitamin b12), dipotassium phosphate, sea salt, gellan gum, ascorbic acid (to protect freshness). Produced on equipment shared with dairy and soy; see their website for details on their food allergen processes.*

    Nutrition (per 1 cup serving): 90 calories, 3.5g fat, 13g carbs, 0g fiber, 5g sugars (including 5g added sugar), 1g protein. Fortified with 35% calcium, 20% vitamin D, 25% vitamin A, 25% riboflavin, and 100% vitamin B12 of the RDA.*

    0g Sugar

    Oats naturally convert to sugars during the enzymatic process of making creamier oatmilk. But they’ve created another step in the production chain to remove all sugars for this sugar-free variety.

    Extra Creamy

    A notch up in indulgence from the Plain variety, the Extra Creamy is a little sweeter and a little richer. No watery oat milk here!

    Vanilla (formula updated October 2020)

    It has just 2 grams more sugar, but this flavored version is notably sweeter then the plain one. But they are similar in other nutrients and consistency.

    Discontinued Flavors

    When they rebranded from “Oat Yeah” to just Oat Milk, the Chocolate flavor was dropped from the line.

    Silk oat milk extra creamy

    Rated 1 out of 5
    August 4, 2022

    Nice white color like real milk. Texture/mouth feel is thick and a bit pasty. Too sweet. Way too many additives. People who are looking to improve their health and are concerned about the planet do not want all that junk added to their food. Planet Oat extra creamy may look watery, but it tastes better than Silk and is healthier.

    Great creamy taste without unnecessary sweetness. Made giving up regular skim milk extremely easy as it tastes better than skim. Availability of this product seems to be getting scarce, April 2022

    Vanilla flavoured oatmeal

    Rated 4 out of 5
    December 22, 2021

    I bought the vanilla Oat milk and I was very Surprised at the flavour and how well it went with my cereal. I enjoyed it very much, and will continue to buy it. I’ve tried some of the other varieties of milks and I do not like them. I recommend this brand of milk.

    Why change a great thing?

    Rated 1 out of 5
    September 8, 2021

    What’s the REAL reason you changed a great product? Oat Yeah was delicious and was most like cow’s milk. It was far better than ANY OTHER BRAND ON THE MARKET! My fiance loved it and he hates anything healthy. I would love to know why it changed. Can you reach out and let me know? This new version is.NOT it!

    Oat Yeah Creamer is the best

    Rated 3 out of 5
    August 30, 2021

    I am very concerned that in rebranding Silk has also changed the consistency of the oatmilk creamer. I use it regularly in my Nespresso frother, and the renamed creamer DOES NOT froth like the original Oat Yeah creamer. AND I was hoping the chocolate-peppermint flavor would return this fall. It’s a much better seasonal treat than Starbuck’s pumpkin lattes.

    What happened???

    Rated 1 out of 5
    August 27, 2021

    Since Silk took over, Oat Yeah is a far cry from what it used to be. It’s no longer creamy, lost its sweetness and curdles in my coffee. We will no longer be buying what used to be our absolute favorite creamer. What a disappointment

    Response from Go Dairy Free

    As a heads up, this has always been a Silk product. They just rebranded / changed the name from their original Oat Yeah name to Silk.

    Great 1/2 and 1/2 Replacement

    Rated 5 out of 5
    July 5, 2021

    None of the plant-based creamers were cutting it for me in replacing 1/2 & 1/2. They all were either too expensive, did not add the creaminess I was missing, or added an odd flavor to my coffee.

    Then I saw Oat Yeah extra creamy and gave it a try. Best decision ever. I noticed I couldn’t find it in my stores in fall of 2020, but Costco still has the two pack, so I knew something was changing! Happy to see the new branding in my stores again finally! This is my go-to for my coffee hands down. Since a carton lasts me for weeks, it’s a great value too.

    Why is it grainy?

    Rated 1 out of 5
    May 10, 2021

    I have tried a couple of different oat milk brands, and I think this is the worst. It’s tasteless and feels awkward and grainy in my mouth. I think this would only be good in things that you cannot taste the milk.
