AUSTIN, Texas, June 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Oatmega is introducing a tasty indulgence you can feel good about with the launch of its new grass-fed whey protein cookies. Oatmega, part of the Amplify Snack Brands portfolio of Better-For-You snacks, is known for its delicious line of grass-fed whey protein bars. Now, Oatmega's grass-fed whey protein cookies offer consumers a fun new way to mix up their protein routine.

Just like the brand's protein bars, Oatmega Cookie is made with grass-fed whey, a premium, high-quality, complete protein that comes from happy, grazing New Zealand cows that are pasture-raised and antibiotic-free. Each cookie contains 12–13g of protein, a daily dose (250mg) of DHA & EPA Omega-3s, and is certified gluten-free and non-GMO. Oatmega Cookie is available in three delicious flavors, including Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter and White Chocolate Macadamia.

"We know consumers are looking for high-quality, great-tasting protein snacks, and Oatmega Cookie lets them satisfy their sweet tooth at the same time," said Oatmega Brand Manager Heather Fitzpatrick. "At Oatmega, amazing taste and nutrition are our top priorities, so you'll find only great-tasting, premium ingredients in all our products."

Oatmega's business model is simple: Heart First. Business Second. Nutrition Shared^™. That's why Oatmega not only focuses on superior nutrition to support a healthy heart, mind and body, but also partners with No Kid Hungry^® to help the fight against childhood hunger by connecting kids in need with nutritious meals.

In addition to the new grass-fed whey protein cookies, Oatmega recently expanded its presence of grass-fed whey protein bars. The bars are currently offered in eight tasty flavors, including: Chocolate Brownie, Chocolate Coconut, Chocolate Mint, Chocolate Peanut, Lemon Chia, Vanilla Almond, White Chocolate Raspberry and Blueberry.

All Oatmega products can be found online and at retailers nationwide. For more information about Oatmega, visit www.oatmega.com or follow us on social media at @OatmegaBar.
