Michele West Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Where can I find complaint chicken broth? I was all set to make a soup from Everyday Paleo when I read the ingredients on my Pacific Natural Foods Organic Free Range Chicken Broth and CANE SUGAR is an ingredient! I plan on making my own stock after roasting chickens this weekend. However, I wanted the soup for lunch today:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted January 4, 2013 Moderators Share Posted January 4, 2013 There are very few sugar free chicken broths on the market. One I found at Whole Foods was the Imagine brand, but only the Organic Free Range Chicken. Other varieties included cane sugar. I found one other sugar free brand once upon a time, but I've forgotten the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb0426 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I think (and please note that my memory is fading ) that it was the Imagine brand of chicken broth that I used when I was unable to make my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melany Anderson Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I think the rachael ray one is sugar free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaybee Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I have the Pacific Natural Foods organic one too, just bought it yesterday, in fact. Was pretty annoyed to get home and see that it has cane sugar. It never occurred to me to look. Why on earth would chicken broth need sugar? However, no sugars show up in the nutritional content.

Kim Christensen Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Why would it be in there? Because sugar tastes good and they want their product to taste the yummiest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michaela Elmore Cogswell Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Costco's Organic is sugar free, but it's also the weekest stock I've ever bought. Imagine at least produces a better product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kropster Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 ACK!!! I used organic chicken broth the other day and thought I was being compliant. After reading this thread, I double checked the label and there is CANE SUGAR!!! ACCKK!! I am on Day 4 of W30. Do I have to start over? I used about 1/2 cup to deglaze the pan where I was sauteing some chicken. Oh, this is so disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be out voted on this but I don't think you need to start over on this one. :0) However, let it be a lesson that you need to read labels and keep reading labels.

Michele West Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 The nearest stores that have compliant broth are over an hour from me. I'm making my own! Cheaper and tastier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb0426 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 The Trader Joe's chicken broth doesn't have any sugar. http://www.traderjoe...?article_id=242 Interesting.

LA28 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I just found one yesterday. It's at whole foods called free range chicken organic broth. Orange box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne T Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I found one that looks compliant with no non-compliant ingredients, BUT at the bottom, it says, "May contain wheat, dairy, or soy ingredients." Would this make it off-limits to y'all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcbn Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 If there are no non-compliant ingredients listed in the ingredients then you are good to go.Food manufacturers are obligated to include this statement when foods containing these ingedients are produced in the same plant in order to notify people suffering from these allergies who can be effected by cross-contamination.

amg871 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 The Pacific Organic free range chicken broth (low sodium) does not have sugar. (They didn't have the full sodium one, so not sure about that version.) I bought the non-organic free range, which did have sugar and took it back for this one.

jdubkc Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I bought Pacific Bone Broth (vs Chicken broth) and it is compliant. Sprouts carries it. Definitely compliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rflowers Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 What has worked for me during this is to roast a whole chicken. I cut it up and use the carcass for broth. Then I have broth and bunch of chicken that can be used in a variety of ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheshire Cheetah Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Watch out for yeast extract. I find that in the strangest places, including chicken broth. On 9/13/2012 at 6:36 AM, Melissa Hartwig said: This is a tricky one. While yeast does contain glutamate, so do plenty of other foods with protein, like meat. The glutamate isn't the issue - it's when these proteins are hydrolyzed at high temperature, creating a different form of glutamate (a less healthy form). I've read both sides, and I'm not convinced that yeast extract contains the unhealthy form of MSG - which is fundamentally, chemically different from glutamic acid. But I'm also not convinced that people who are very sensitive to MSG wouldn't have a reaction when exposed to this particular form. We say nutritional yeast is okay for the Whole30, and I doubt that yeast extract is going to present a problem for 99.99% of folks doing the program. But for now, as Tom said, we'll encourage you to look for foods and products without these added ingredients, or better yet - just make your own chicken broth. However, I would see no need to start over because you ate some yeast extract in your soup. Best, Melissa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
