A New Spin On Oatmeal
When you hear the word oatmeal, “tasty” may not be the first thing that comes to mind. Chrystie wanted to give her young children a healthy cereal for breakfast that they would like. She says when she would make her kids oatmeal, they would complain that it was “mushy and boring.” But the cereals she found in the stores were mostly sugary and over-processed. And Chrystie wanted something better for her family.
“As every busy mother knows, mornings are crucial for a great start to the day,” she says. “I wanted something convenient as well as healthy”
Her kids loved the cereal, and she decided to give it as Christmas gifts to family and friends. Not only did the recipients ask for more, but they also encouraged her to market the oatmeal.
That was a little over two years ago. Now her product is sold all over thePacific Northwest. She does direct sales and receives mail orders via the Web site and is beginning to tap into the East Coast market.
There isn’t a much more ordinary product than oatmeal Chrystie’s product has been able to make quite a name for itself.
