PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Bob's Red Mill, a leader in the homemade food movement for more than 40 years, is expanding its line of high-quality oat offerings with two new innovations: Chocolate Chip Instant Oatmeal Packets and Chocolate Hazelnut Overnight Protein Oats. The new products build on the brand's lineup of convenient breakfast solutions made with simple, recognizable ingredients and will debut at Natural Products Expo West 2026, March 3-6, in Anaheim, California (Booth #805). Bob's Red Mill will also be bringing its Moregetherness—more + togetherness—movement to life through an immersive community-centric booth experience, encouraging attendees to build connections through food.

Indulgent Flavor Varieties Join Oat Offerings

On display at Natural Products Expo West, Bob's Red Mill will be previewing two new oat innovations that expand its convenient, high-quality breakfast offerings:

  • Scratch-quality oatmeal ready in just three minutes: Chocolate Chip Instant Oatmeal Packets join the brand's line of gluten free and Non-GMO Project Verified Instant Oatmeal Packets. Made with their signature four-oat blend, the new chocolate chip variety features homemade taste and texture and is a good source of fiber.
  • Rich chocolate flavor and crunchy hazelnuts: Chocolate Hazelnut Overnight Protein Oats are made with Bob's Red Mill's innovative Protein Oats and are an easy way to wake up to 10g of protein – without any added protein powders. Simply add your milk of choice and chill overnight for a convenient, satisfying breakfast.

"Our goal is to continually evolve with how people are eating today," said Daniel Barba, Vice President of Marketing at Bob's Red Mill. "These new oat offerings pair rich, craveable flavors with the nourishment of whole grains, making it easier to enjoy a breakfast that's convenient, thoughtfully made and unmistakably Bob's Red Mill."

Bringing Moregetherness to Natural Products Expo West: Booth #805

Bob's Red Mill will also be featuring neighborhood-inspired programming throughout the show including:
