Yeah - No Tomato!
Susan Jane•December 16, 2017
I do not like my stock to have tomato in it. I prefer to add my own tomato when the recipe calls for it. No matter how far down the ingredient list, tomato always over-powers the stock. Kitchen Basics is my go-to chicken stock. It has plenty of healthy "stuff" in it, unlike Swanson and others which are almost clear and full of unnatural "stuff." Obviously canned stock works for some people, as does bouillon, but I say ICK. Be aware though, Kitchen Basics does have a version with tomato in it -- always check the front of the box and the ingredients list. When I make homemade chicken soup or rice in my rice cooker, I want quality natural chicken -- Kitchen Basics delivers!
Great size and good-tasting stock

This is great chicken stock, wonderful flavor and I especially like the size. I use these 8 oz containers all the time. I don't waste it and use all of the container rather than the larger size. It's perfect for two people when making all kinds of dishes. The taste is very chicken-y and very good.
YUM - YUM

Oh Yum Yum, I love the fact that it is unsalted and I can add my own sea salt and herbs to the broth. I really perks up Cous Cous.
Kitchen Basics Original Beef Stock, 8.25 oz.
Nona R•March 19, 2017
This original beef stock has a mild taste. For just a cup of hot broth it doesn't require any additional salt. Handy size for a quick snack with five grams of protein and 30 calories.
BEWARE: with the new packaging in Fall 2016 is a completely different thinner yellow fluid with more salt and no mushrooms

Kitchen Basics used to be the most delicious chicken stock. When it got bought by McCormick in 2015, it seemed a little lighter, but still retained its essential character. With the newest box, the stock is now completely different. It smelled predominantly of celery and had lost all of its rich orangy yellow color. Looking at the ingredients, mushrooms have been completely eliminated, and there are now more salts (both sodium and potassium) than it used to have.
Original ingredients: Chicken stock, chicken flavor, honey, vegetable stocks (carrot, onion, mushroom, celery), bay, thyme, pepper.
2015 McCormick ingredients: Chicken Stock, Vegetable Stock (Carrot, Onion, Mushrooms, And Celery), Natural Chicken Flavor, Honey, Salt, NATURAL FLAVOR (e.g. yeast extract containing MSG), And Spice And Herbs (Black Pepper, Bay Leaf, And Thyme).
2016 McCormick ingredients: chicken stock, natural chicken flavor, cooked vegetables (celery, carrot, onion), honey, spice and herbs (black pepper, bayleaf, thyme), and natural flavor.
To go with these changes, the boxes have been getting progressively lighter, as the stock becomes progressively watered down, so that the color of the stock is now completely different. The new box is on the left in the attached photo. (Stocks appear darker in the two cup measuring cup than the one cup, so the difference in color is even more dramatic than appears in the photo).
I went back to my store to return the unopened carton, and the manager found 10 remaining boxes in the back room of the older version, and I bought all of them. I plan to write to McCormick as they said to contact them if you are dissatisfied with the product. If enough people complain, maybe they would consider bringing back the older formula. For now, it is clear that these stocks are NOT worth the extra cost that I used to be willing to pay for Kitchen Basics.
