Oatly Just Dropped Popcorn-Flavored Oat Milk, and They Want You to Pour It on Cereal

Oatly dropped a Popcorn Barista Edition oat milk. Popcorn. In your latte. There is also a Churros edition for the purists, but popcorn is the headline, and the headline is unhinged.

A reviewer says the popcorn note tastes like cereal milk, which is funny, because Oatly's own official recommendation is to literally pour it on cereal. Technically it is a Barista Edition, but the serving suggestion tells you everything. This is not a creamer with a fun flavor. This is a beverage having an identity crisis.

But hold on. Cereal milk is a beloved flavor in the dessert world. Cake batters, ice creams, cereal bars, all chasing that milky leftover sweetness. So is popcorn-flavored oat milk cooked or is it genius? The truth is probably both, like most great food ideas.

Fall is getting weird, and I am here for all of it.
