for those that use stock powder keep it in the fridge. It stops it from going hard and lumpy

I emailed maggi about their stock powder they just sent me a voucher for $5 discount, hate their new chicken stock and seasoning it is gross, why change something that is not broken and has been around for so many years. wont use it again. Bought from Binn Inn much better even tho its 1.5 hrs drive away bought lots of their stuff.

Massells is so salty and I find the chicken one really false tasting,, which is unsurprising since there are no animal products at all it Massells.Of all of them I think Knorr is the least offensive and is a lot less salty.

Massel has salt-reduced stock cubes too - check the label.I buy the vegetable packet.

Since I posted in August I, too, have found Massel-simply because my local Countdown had neither chicken nor beef Oxo cubes in stock.Would you believe!
I am thrilled with the Massel and can't understand why you, karennz, find them salty.The Maggi ones I find the worst for saltiness but the Massel ones I find are not-I don't like salt and put either none or the bare minimum in my cooking and Massel stock cubes just have the right balance-for me, of course.Different strokes for different folks!

.and just to be different, I like the new Maggi Beef and Seasoning stock powder - tastes more like well-browned beef to me. Can't say I've noticed much difference in their chicken stock powder though.

OXO cubes all the way - have used them for 20 years - and my Mum has used them for 20 years before that!

We've changed back to oxo as well, I don't know why maggi had to try to fix something that wasn't broken.

I always thought the best Maggi stock flavour was their mushroom one. It was great for cooking mushrooms and seemed to really bring out the flavour. Sadly they seemed to stop making it a few years ago! Goodness knows why.Very annoying when they chop & change things!
