What it is
This is a plant-based beverage made from oats. It is a liquid product designed to be a dairy-free alternative. The drink is typically smooth and has a mild, slightly sweet flavor derived from the oats themselves. It is processed to be shelf-stable before opening, making it convenient for stocking in pantries. The consistency is similar to that of cow's milk.

How it differs from similar foods
