Have you tried this broth?

[laurenella82 625]

I was getting the Thai ginger broth to see if I like it and I saw this too so I picked it us as well. You add 2 tbsp to 1 cup of Water for 15 calories.

Has anyone tried it before?

Can you take a picture of the ingredients? Did they have any vegetarian friendly flavors?

[laurenella82 625]

The pics won't take clearly on my cheap phone lol.... It's beef stock,maltodextrin,sea salt,yeast extract,natural flavors,tapioca starch, salt,vegetable stock (carrot,celery,and onion stocks),beef fat,xanthan gum,natural beef flavor,work juice concentrate, dried beef stock, spices.

It comes in beef, chicken, and veggie.

Where did you find it?

@@laurenella82 Nope. Never.

[laurenella82 625]

I got it at Giant.

It makes 28 cups so I figured $4.50 wasn't too bad.

How does it compare to Better than Bouillon?

[laurenella82 625]

I know nothing about better than bullion. The only broth I've ever had plain was swanson chicken. I've cooked with their veggie broth. It's 15 cals 480 sodium

[BLERDgirl 6,417]

@@laurenella82 - Thanks. I might have problems with the maltodextrin. It's another artificial sugar.

Ok I've said it before that I'm not picky but I have tried ask the Swanson, Tuscan, Cajun, seafood, none of them can I stand. Don't know why, this pre op had got me all weird. Usually if I'm starving I can eat just about anything but not these!

Make your own. It's easy enough. For veg I roast vegetable in evoo for extra flavor then simmer on low until the veg is falling apart. Cool, drain the solids off (I save them a puree into a paste to use as a base for Soups later) For Beef, chicken, seafood. saute onions/garlic is a tiny bit of evoo, add meat/bones or seafood cover with Water and simmer until the meat is falling off the bone. Again drain off solids. You can add any seasons you want. Best yet,you control the amount of sodium. I usually end up with about 3 quarts so I freeze most of it to use as I need.

The Swanson Thai Ginger and Tuscan chicken broth taste great. The Swanson Louisiana Cajun and Mexican Tortilla broth flavors are quite spicy and sometimes burn your throat when you swallow. All four flavors are much better than plain broth. I bought some herb and garlic flavor enhancers to put in my regular chicken and beef broth.

I agree the Mexican tortilla was too spicy for me & I generally like spicy food.< /p>

I didn't see those when I went to the grocery store. I'll have to check Walmart and Whole Foods. They sound good!!
