Stock and broth are two distinct critters. Stock from Costco has the lowest amount of Salt and is sold as Organic. Checked the Source,and it is from Oregon,which has the strongest Organic Rules in the Nation for compliance in order to carry a Organic label for resale in Oregon.

Salt in nothing more than a flavor enhancer,whither it be Stock or Broth,regular or Organic. And the human body does not require all this additional salt.

I like to keep a jar of a soup base 'paste', on hand Siwsan Nov 2017 #2

Interesting on bone broth. Think there is something about Laura PourMeADrink Nov 2017 #4

I strip the breast meat from the carcass, before putting it in the cooker Siwsan Nov 2017 #7

Now I am hungry for chicken soup. nt Irish_Dem Nov 2017 #36

Me too. I made a lot of my own broth, but Hortensis Nov 2017 #42

I'll have to try that Better Than Bouillon Siwsan Nov 2017 #43

Do. Sometimes the regular-salt variety is the only Hortensis Nov 2017 #44

When I roast a chicken, I stuff it full, with fresh herbs Siwsan Nov 2017 #45

I buy those rotisserie chickens sold in the stores (Cosco, Kroger). After eating the meat, Irish_Dem Nov 2017 #5

Those do make amazing soup! Siwsan Nov 2017 #8

Yes and the price at Coscos is not bad. I found you have to use two carcasses to make the best soup Irish_Dem Nov 2017 #9

I've read that they are doing some major changes to Aldi's stores Siwsan Nov 2017 #20

That would be great. I remember about ten years ago when Aldi's was a real grocery store. Irish_Dem Nov 2017 #21

Mine has about 3/4 of an aisle stock with non grocery stuff Siwsan Nov 2017 #22

I need to go back and look for the items you describe. I was clueless and shocked Irish_Dem Nov 2017 #23

and I use those carcasses to make chix SOUP, elleng Nov 2017 #34

Yes if I use two chicken carcasses the homemade broth is amazing. Irish_Dem Nov 2017 #35

I tried chicken broth in a carton ONE TIME and went back to cans. Demit Nov 2017 #26

What I like about broth in a carton is that you don't have to use up PoindexterOglethorpe Nov 2017 #52

What I didn't like was that the carton broth was bad when I opened it. Demit Nov 2017 #53
