And you find those weird ingredients listed on the label. Coriander, lemon grass, and star anise are some of the ones I've encountered with no clue to that on the label. -sw

There's a huge change that 8 out of 11 times it will be the same result. But flip it 847,000 times and see what happens. Historically, which is what Kent loves to quote, Stroganoff did not contain beef broth (or mushrooms). -sw

When I shop for Knorr, I automatically reach for the tomato one and haven't really paid attention to what else they have. I wonder if the shrimp and seafood would aggravate my husband's gout? He avoids that stuff in RL. I watched an old Rachael Ray 30 minute meal the other week where she used a liquid seafood stock in a box, which I've never seen on the grocery store shelves.

Their bouillon products are invariably Knorr, which I also feel to be of good quality. I'm going to try the Knorr beef again. What's interesting, I think, is that in the Mexican markets you find Knorr, ham, pork, shrimp, seafood, and other bouillon granules. The ham granules are good. I use them in ham and pea soup. They also come large containers, so you can always have it on hand and use just what you want. Throw in a 1/2 tsp more, etc. K,

I use Organics because their salt content per 1 cup serving is significantly less than Swanson's... 570 mg per serving vs Swanson's 800+. -- Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground.

I'd rather use the jar of Knorr granules (Caldo de Tamate is my favorite) that I buy at the Mexican market. They have just as much meat/veg flavor and I can keep them on a cupboard shelf instead of taking up valuable refrigerator space. -- Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground.
