Zac Efron Teams Up With Kodiak For An Exclusive Oatmeal Featuring His Go-To Ingredients

Kodiak, renowned for its high-protein, whole-grain breakfast products, has joined forces with Chief Brand Officer Zac Efron to introduce a brand-new breakfast option: Apple Brown Sugar Pecan Oatmeal.

Available exclusively at Walmart for a limited time, Zac Efron's new hearty oatmeal is designed to fuel epic adventures and promote healthier lifestyles.

Packed with Zac Efron's favorite ingredients, including chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, cranberry seeds, and prebiotics, this oatmeal delivers 14 grams of protein per serving while remaining low in sugar. Each box contains six convenient instant oatmeal packets, perfect for busy mornings—just add water and microwave or steep in hot water.

"We are so excited to be launching this limited-edition Apple Brown Sugar Pecan Oatmeal with Zac," Cory Bayers, Chief Marketing Officer of Kodiak, said in an email shared with The Blast. "Packed with protein and nutrient-dense ingredients, this oatmeal inspires consumers to get out and live epic adventures in the great outdoors. It also ties back to one of our core values of giving back, ensuring today’s youth enjoys tomorrow’s wild places."

In addition to its nutritious profile, every purchase of the Apple Brown Sugar Pecan Oatmeal supports Kodiak's Keep It Wild initiatives. A portion of each sale goes toward non-profit organizations dedicated to conserving and protecting wildlife and their habitats, aligning with Zac Efron's personal passion for environmental preservation.

"Developing this oatmeal with Kodiak was such a fun experience," Zac Efron said. "My goal was to create an oatmeal that’s really delicious and really good for you—with less sugar and more nutritious ingredients. I think we nailed it, and I’m so excited for people to try it. And I’m extremely grateful that Kodiak has decided to donate a portion of every sale towards a cause that’s important to me—wildlife preservation."

Retailing at $5.98, the Apple Brown Sugar Pecan Oatmeal is now available at Walmart while supplies last.

On a mission to "Feed Epic Days and Wilder Lives," Kodiak inspires people to live wide-open, adventurous lives by providing real breakfasts made with wholesome ingredients. Born among the Wasatch Mountains of Park City, Utah, Kodiak has been dedicated for over 30 years to creating protein-packed, honest breakfasts free from artificial preservatives, flavors, or colors.

Zac Efron’s diet plan, particularly during his intense transformation phases, was previously made public and serves as a masterclass in disciplined nutrition and strategic meal planning. Known for his chiseled physique in roles like the muscle-bound lifeguard in "Baywatch," Efron’s approach to nutrition is a key factor in achieving his peak physical condition.

At the core of Efron’s diet are clean and organic protein sources. Egg whites, chicken breast, pork loin, turkey breast, and fish form the foundation of his protein intake. These lean protein sources are essential for building and maintaining lean muscle mass while keeping body fat levels low.

Efron also incorporates plant-based amino acids through flax seeds and pumpkin seeds, offering additional muscle recovery benefits. Occasionally, he opts for bone broth soup, valued for its collagen content and overall wellness properties. However, he has since revealed he is no longer full vegan.

Carbohydrates play an essential role in fueling Efron’s intense workouts and maintaining energy throughout the day. He focuses on complex carbohydrates such as sweet potatoes, brown rice, and oats. These slow-digesting carbs provide a steady energy supply, prevent blood sugar spikes, and support sustained endurance during training sessions.

Efron’s diet doesn’t shy away from healthy fats, recognizing their crucial role in hormone balance and cellular function. Sources like avocados, nuts, and olive oil not only support metabolism but also contribute to overall well-being. These fats help optimize the body’s ability to burn fat and maintain lean muscle.

The success of Zac Efron’s diet lies in its balance and precision. Each macronutrient—proteins, carbohydrates, and fats—plays a specific role in his overall health and performance. By focusing on nutrient-dense, whole foods and maintaining consistency, Efron has managed to achieve and sustain his iconic physique.

Whether preparing for an on-screen role or maintaining his everyday health, Zac Efron’s disciplined approach to nutrition highlights the importance of mindful eating and a well-structured diet plan. His dedication serves as inspiration for anyone striving to improve their physical fitness and overall wellness.
