Don’t Waste Your Time

These were absolutely disgusting. The broth has a super funky, off putting smell %26 has no flavor, while at the same time tasting like weird, rancid chemicals. That funky chemical taste still came through strongly even when using the packet as a soup base with additional spices, seasonings %26 ingredients. Plus, upon reading the box, I saw that there’s a lead exposure warning… no thanks! Wouldn’t even feed this to my dog. 0/5 Stars.

I got bone broth from this exact brand a year ago and it was delicious. This one has a terrible taste, literally like blood. Smelled up my entire break room in the worst way. Total waste of money. I wouldn’t be surprised if a lawsuit came out with this being extremely dangerous to consume given the horrible smell and completely different taste than last time. Something wrong is happening.

I was very excited to finally try this product. When the hot water hit it, the smell is what I experienced first. It smells like a wet dog. I mixed it up, trying not to smell it, which took a bit. I may not have had the water hot enough though. Then came the taste. To my and my pallette it was bland. The aroma had gotten better. To me it needs salt although it has 530mgs already. It just needs something. My first thought was, bullion and then maybe some garlic powder. I was hoping it would be hot water and go, but I will have to add extras. Will stick with Herbox granules or Better than Bullion.

Convenient for Nutrients, but Lacks Flavor

I love the convenience and how easy it is to get in nutrients. However, I did experience some minor inconveniences. As soon as I opened the broth stick powder flew everywhere. The powder did dissolve fairly easy. No huge clumps. I prepped it per the instructions and the taste was ok. I was expecting it to be more flavorful but to me it was a very subtle taste. If you love broth that's not overpowering then I would encourage you to try it. May by it again but only if I am unable to find a better suited alternative for me.

The Smell….

It smells like literal dog food. 🫣🤢 I could not get past the smell. It dissolved easily and I was super excited to try it. But NO!!!! Absolutely not.

Too vile for words.

Absolutely revolting. A bizarrely sour, metallic taste, with notes of chewable vitamin. I didn't expect it to taste amazing, but I could never have expected it to taste so disgusting.

Ilove this product because I can season it to my liking since it's not salty. My kiddos love it too! Super convient for my lifestyle and easy to store.

This bone broth is delicious compared to (2) other brands that I’ve tried. It prompted me to learn to make bone broth from scratch. But when I travel, I take a few boxes of these packets.
