A CRAZY, SIMPLE IDEA

Our story began quite simply - Rodger, a soon to be new dad who aspired to snack better and loved the health benefits of oats sought out a way to make them more snack-able.  After connecting with fellow Berkeley alum, Marc, the idea for Pop Oats was hatched!  Together, we've been striving ever since to introduce our first-of-its-kind snack that challenges everything you know about oats: ready-to-eat convenience with oat-rageous savory flavors...snack awesomely!

A Hit at Local Festivals

Pop Oats' combination of savory flavors and a unique crunch (between that of sunflower seeds and Corn Nuts) have been a hit at local farmers' markets and festivals.

Snack Hack-a-thon!

We teamed up with the U.C. Berkeley Food Science Technology Club and had a blast coming up with creative cluster creations.  Clusters are something we'll be launching in the future.  For now, check out our flavored snack varieties.
