How does it compare to regular Swanson Chicken Broth?
It has 33% less sodium per serving while keeping the same trusted Swanson chicken flavor profile, making it the better option for shoppers focused on sodium reduction.
Is this broth a good alternative to salted bouillon cubes or paste?
Yes. It delivers savory chicken flavor in a pourable, pre-measured liquid form, which many wellness shoppers prefer over concentrated cubes that can be high in sodium and additives.
Will the lower sodium make my soup taste bland?
Not when paired with fresh aromatics, herbs, and a finishing squeeze of lemon. The broth is designed as a balanced base, allowing you to season to taste with whole-food ingredients instead of added salt.

How should I store this chicken broth after opening?
After opening, reseal the carton using the built-in spout cap and store it in the refrigerator. Use it within 5 to 7 days for the best flavor and quality, or freeze portions in airtight containers for longer storage.
Can I freeze this broth in smaller portions?
Yes. The broth freezes well. Pour leftovers into ice cube trays, silicone molds, or freezer-safe containers so you can pull out just the amount you need for a single recipe.
How can I use this broth as a substitute for water in recipes?
Use a 1:1 swap in place of water when cooking rice, quinoa, couscous, pasta, or when making soups, chilis, stuffing, and risotto. You can also use it to deglaze pans, build pan sauces, and braise chicken or vegetables.
Is this broth compatible with rice cookers, Instant Pots, and slow cookers?
Yes. It can be used in place of water or stock in most electric rice cookers, pressure cookers like the Instant Pot, and slow cookers for grains, braises, and one-pot meals.
Does this broth work in recipes that call for chicken stock?
Yes. In most home cooking applications, this broth can be used interchangeably with chicken stock. It delivers a balanced, savory chicken flavor suitable for soups, sauces, grains, and braises.
What comes in the box, and do I need to buy anything separately to use it?
The product ships as a single 32 oz recyclable paper carton with a resealable spout. It is ready to use straight from the carton — no extra equipment, dilution, or seasoning is required to start cooking.
Is this broth safe for people with common food allergies?
The broth is certified gluten-free and does not contain artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives. However, it is made with chicken, so anyone with a poultry allergy should avoid it. Always review the full ingredient label for your specific dietary needs.
How long is the carton good for before opening?
An unopened carton has a long shelf life — typically several months from the date of purchase. Check the 'best by' date printed on the carton for the most accurate information.
What is the difference between chicken broth and chicken stock?
Chicken stock is usually made by simmering bones for a longer time, producing a richer body and more collagen. Chicken broth is typically made by simmering meat and vegetables for a shorter time, resulting in a lighter, more seasoned flavor. This product is a chicken broth designed to deliver balanced chicken flavor for everyday cooking.
