pspunk 1 Posted August 4, 2014 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ginger Snaps 1,323 Posted August 4, 2014 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amazon 579 Posted August 4, 2014 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pspunk 1 Posted August 4, 2014 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!

fezik23 240 Posted August 4, 2014 I made ramen without the noodles. Sometimes I added tofu that I whirred in the blender. I thought the Unjury was a waste. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LadyK44 263 Posted August 5, 2014 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. 1 1 Triedit and VSGAnn2014 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamlyn 107 Posted August 5, 2014 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. 2 VSGAnn2014 and laynie427 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shells_Almost_There 357 Posted August 5, 2014 "Better than Bouillon" was a lifesaver during liquids phase - the beef and chicken are both great tasting. 1 pspunk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dv1osusie! 10 Posted August 6, 2014 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!! 1 pspunk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jhaymom 38 Posted August 6, 2014 I was using Organic Healthy Valley it tasted more like Soup than broth and has 9g of Protein which was a bonus! 1 pspunk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
par1959 470 Posted August 6, 2014 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.
