Better Than Bouillon



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I am going for surgery next week 9/13/06, and not looking forward to Clear liquids for 10 days, so I was excited to hear about this bouillon that was so good and high in Protein, like 32gm. It does come in some interesting flavors, but I don't see the protein. I just bought the beef and it says 1gm, so, am I missing something? I'm looking for the person who posted about this who might can fill me in. I love this forum and all the info. I've gotten.

Heading for bandland. Down 8lb on preop diet. Excited. Leaving tomorrow for TJ.

Thanks for any info.

Jewel

I'd like to revive this thread. I also went shopping for this product. Last night I stood in the aisle in my local supermarket checking the labels of all four varieties of BTB, beef, chicken, mushroom, and vegetable. Not one of them has over 1gm of Protein per serving.

Can anyone out there tell us what is the product that has all the Protein?

i remember that post too and check out the BTB jars.

Guess the poster made a mistake. Label states the amt. of Protein.

I was hoping that perhaps she was just mistaken with the name. Hopefully someone out there knows of another bouillon that is high in Protein. I thank the poster above me for posting about unjury chicken flavor. Would anyone know if there is a mushroom or vegetable bouillon out there with good protein?

I use the Unjury Protein powders and you can sprinkle them in the broths that you normally buy if you want to do it that way. 30 grams of protein is how much I shook in and that way you get a bunch at a time. It comes in unflavored, choc. van. straw. or kinds. Good luck.

I too am looking for the Better than Bouillon that is high in Protein. The only jars I saw at my Wal-Mart had 1gram.

There is no Better Than Boullion that is higher in Protein. All of the products have 1 gram or less (that I have found). I have been able to find the chicken, beef, vegetable, turkey, lobster, mushroom and ham. I have not seen the clam, chili, organics, nor the vegan ones.

Here's the link to the BTB site where you can order it, it is a very good base despite the lack of Protein as hoped:

Yah I ordered Better Than Boullion off a website cause of whoever had said it had so much Protein. I got three kinds too. I was not happy when I got it and it had barely any. But on the plus side...it tastes great! :)

Try Amazon - they seem to have them all (from other sites).

What you have to watch with Better than Boullion is that some of them list their Protein in milligrams (mg). Our protein intake is measured by grams. So I think part of the confusion is the jar is saying 32mg, which only equals .032g of protein. 1 milligram = 0.001 grams Just FYI, hopes this helps.

I'm glad they have so many flavors.. I have beef & chicken bouillion cubes in my house all the time for cooking, and when I heard someone mention vegetable flavor, I was looking for it this past weekend. All our store carries is beef & chicken bouillion and vegetable broth in a can. I like powder..

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
