If you tried it when it first came out, give it a second try—it’s been updated to have a thicker consistency and a more intense flavor for a richer spoonful. Testers liked the Triple Berry flavor best. $2 at Whole Foods Market PICKY OATS PERFORMANCE OATMEAL These protein-packed oatmeals can be enjoyed hot or as cold overnight oats, and they come in far-from-boring flavors, like How ’Bout Dem Apples and Can’t Beet Chocolate. $3 at pickybars.com and REI stores LA COLOMBE DRAFT LATTE MADE WITH OATMILK Oat milk adds vegan-friendly creaminess (and fiber!) to this chillable coffee drink. It’s best served cold, but can be stored unopened at room temperature, saving on fridge…
