Michele West 98 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:( 1 aprilb reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Denham 10042 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. 3 Robin Strathdee, marykely and Michele West reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kb0426 1607 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. 2 marykely and Michele West reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melany Anderson 11 Posted January 4, 2013 I think the rachael ray one is sugar free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaybee 102 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kim Christensen 156 Posted January 5, 2013 Why would it be in there? Because sugar tastes good and they want their product to taste the yummiest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michaela Elmore Cogswell 79 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kropster 1 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. 1 Susan W reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. 2 Keisha and Robin Strathdee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kb0426 1607 Posted January 6, 2013 The Trader Joe's chicken broth doesn't have any sugar. http://www.traderjoe...?article_id=242 Interesting.

Eitel Sanchez 0 Posted January 6, 2013 Interesting. I was at TJ's today and checked their chicken broth and was almost certain I saw "cane" something on the label. There's two different boxes. One does has sugar cane, the other one doesn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LA28 5 Posted January 6, 2013 I just found one yesterday. It's at whole foods called free range chicken organic broth. Orange box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anne T 0 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmcbn 9767 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 12 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdubkc 41 Posted September 27, 2015 I bought Pacific Bone Broth (vs Chicken broth) and it is compliant. Sprouts carries it. Definitely compliant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rflowers 2 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. 1 Bellmaestra reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheshire Cheetah 11 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
