Great Value
Great Value Chicken Broth
Score breakdown

Standard commercial processing with flavor concentrates rather than traditional slow-simmered preparation methods.
Zero chicken sourcing details, no animal welfare standards, and recent recall history raise quality concerns.
Minimal chicken content with yeast extract and concentrates for flavor enhancement instead of quality ingredients.
