Best Tasting Chicken Broth?



Recommended Posts

I'm in the liquid diet stage and chicken broth is so bland. Does anyone have some brands they've found taste better than others?

Different doctors might have different ideas, but I always had to add some salt to my broth to be able to get it down. I tried some of the more expensive kinds (Rachel Ray has some and Wolfgang Puck) but they were all still just chicken broth. :(

I ordered the sample pack from injury and found their chicken broth pleasant. Hope I still do post op because I ordered a tub!

I find other broths blah. So I may as well get some Protein in too!

Thank you! I have a couple samples of the Unjury broth that I haven't tried yet. Hopefully it's good! I didn't care for any of the other flavors :( I was thinking of springing for the more expensive brand name broths as well, good to know they're still just broth lol!

I made ramen without the noodles. Sometimes I added tofu that I whirred in the blender. I thought the Unjury was a waste.

Two days after my surgery the hospital gave me lukewarm chicken broth. When it touched my lips I was feeling well enough to go home. I almost walked home. At home it is low-sodium Campbell's with white pepper.

I take regular low salt chicken broth and simmer it with a bag of frozen Soup veggie mix and a clove or two of garlic, and then drain off the vegetables. It makes it taste more like chicken soup and less like chicken broth.

That sounds like a great idea!!

I didn't like the different kinds of chicken broth I tried after surgery, until one day I was searching the chicken broth shelf for something new and noticed that the next shelf over had Mrs Grass noodle soup! I just made the Soup and didn't add the noodles! Mrs Grass became a staple for me in the beginning!!

I was using Organic Healthy Valley it tasted more like Soup than broth and has 9g of Protein which was a bonus!

I found the tasty chicken broth had lots of salt. After about a week I felt like a salt lick and searched out the lowest sodium both /soups I could find. Now at 8 eek post op I am letting a little salt back in, but it is suprising how little I use anymore. I hardley exceed 1200 MG per day. 2000 is were the FDA sets the normal level.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
