    I did not enjoy my overnight oats!!

    I used :

    40g oats
    60ml unsweetened almond milk
    60g 0% greek yoghurt

    then I added 75g blueberries this morning.

    It was like wallpaper paste!!! - where did I go wrong?!

    You did nothing wrong. The consistency with steel cut oats is better, but still... totally not worth the hype for me.

    I tried those 'brownie batter' oats and it tasted anything but. Just not worth the calories for me.

    I like the IDEA, but I'm not sure I can get my mind around the concept of cold wet oats. I'm so used to warm oatmeal with fruit and nuts, which I love - until IT gets cold. Also, if a person likes their oatmeal on the not so thick and dense side, will they like cold, thick, wet flavored oats? Guess I'll just have to try it.

    What is the purpose of the whey powder? Just to add protein?

    yes

    (and flavour)

    The consistency is a love/hate thing for most it seems.

    The drawback for me is the substantial lack of volume compared to nuking with water and eating hot.
