Maybe I am missing something. We have never had an issue with buying bullion cubes in any supermarket- they always seem to have beef, chicken, tomato and usually fish/shrimp, ham (in envelopes).

Am I missing something?

Knorr chicken flavour cubes....... first three ingredients....- salt, MSG, partially hydrogenated cottonseed oil....... .... finished off with
disodium something and some other weird thing I'm not sure what it is.

And the other thing about OXOs; they are fun to crumble.

Au contraire Rodney, au contraire. I think we have reached the epitome of threads. I didnt realise it would raise such feelings. I mean what in this world could be more important than OXO cubes?

I love the fact that there is a healthy debate on stock cubes - its good for the soul.

OXO contain meat extract and is technically banned from import without a licence ..

Orlando Airport is the only POE that I know which enforces it with enthusiasm...
