 Great product!Nov 18, 2010
By frycook
Thank you, Knorr, for making a meat-free and tomato-free bouillon to season just about everything I cook. Yes, it's salty--just like most every other type of bouillon. But these wonderfully soft cubes are easy to break in half or quarters to adjust to your taste.

yummyFeb 15, 2011
By Heather
I prefer this veggie bouillon to any I have tried, very flavorful, but I do like my food on the salty side tho (fyi: 1/2 of a cube has 35% of your daily sodium! and does contain MSG). It makes a very satisfactory gravy. The price is reasonable, even when you add the shipping, it is comparable to the stores. Which leads me to the reason I purchased it here...I can no longer find a local store that carries this brand :( and I live in a decent sized city.

Very good bouillon but hard to find in stores nowJan 07, 2011
By M. McQueen
I think these vegetable bouillon cubes are great. Each individually-wrapped cube makes two cups of vegetable broth. Since the cubes are soft they mix easily into water. My only problem with them is that I can no longer find them in local stores and I have a couple recipes that use these cubes. I've tried "Better Than Bouillon" vegetable bouillon but found it was nowhere near as good as Knorr. And Swanson's boxed broth gave my rice recipes a darker color than the Knorr cubes did.

Fantastic TasteJul 03, 2011
By Mark
Knorr Vegetable Bouillon is my favorite! I'm just upset more stores don't carry it. This is great with rice, soups, pretty much any savory dish to give it an extra kick of flavor. Of course it is high in sodium, it is a bouillon cube! The people who have given negative reviews could have saved themselves a lot of time, by checking the ingredients label. I wonder if they also complain about the sodium level in salt?

Next Best Thing to "From Scratch"Mar 09, 2011
By J. A. Coleman

I usually make my own chicken stock from scratch, but sometimes what I've got on hand isn't enough to fill the pot. When that happens, this is my go-to bouillon. It's also great for when you get to the bottom of a big pot of soup, and it's super thick. Adding a little of this vegetable stock can stretch out that last bit without sacrificing flavor. I've tried a lot of different chicken bouillons, but none of them have the wonderful flavor this vegetable one does. This is also the only bouillon I will drink straight, when I'm feeling sick. It's delicious!
The sodium in this is comparable to other bouillons, and MSG (in some form, frequently listed as "autolyzed yeast extract") is in pretty much every canned soup and stock out there. Very few people are actually sensitive to it, or they would have gotten sick every time they ate Campbell's soup as a kid. But they see the scary letters and get alarmed. It's just silly.
While I do think you should try to keep processing foods like this to a minimum because of the high sodium levels, a little bit here and there won't hurt you. Fast food and processed meals like TV dinners and Top Ramen are far worse. Practice moderation in all things and you will be fine. :-)
