In anticipation for my postpartum period, I elected to trial Milky Oat for 2 days. To be honest, I was a bit skeptical (would something like this really be worth it?) but upon arrival, I realized Milky Oat was special. Most importantly, the meals, snacktations, and sipping beverages were delicious. Each item was well seasoned, flavorful, and nourishing. Secondly, the packaging was thoughtful, simple, and beautiful. The act of opening the food and drinks felt like a ritual and reverence (to myself) in and of itself. Thirdly, I really appreciate that Milky Oat is focused on waste reduction and recycles all their packaging. Lastly, while I enjoy and appreciate frozen or bulk food services, Milky Oat is fresh. I know I will appreciate not having to think about defrosting food items and having fresh food on hand. Needless to say, I signed up for a 6 week meal plan after the 2 day trial. I hope this company expands and grows and postpartum women/individuals realize that focusing on your nourishment and healing during this sacred period is important and worth every penny.
