Maggi Chicken Bouillon Cubes

Breakdown

7 ingredients to avoid

Maggi Chicken Bouillon Cubes scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Maggi Chicken Bouillon Cubes lists 18 ingredients, starting with Salt, Palm Oil, Corn Starch, Monosodium Glutamate and Sugar. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Maggi Chicken Bouillon Cubes scores worse than most soups & broths we have scored. A higher-scoring option in soups & broths is Kirkland Signature Organic Chicken Bone Broth at 72/100.
