MSG? No thanks
I note, having viewed the knorr.co.uk website, that they state that no MSG is added to the stock cubes they sell there. I grew up with Knorr cubes as an essential ingredient to many meals. That was in Ireland. Now living in the US I refuse to buy Knorr stock cubes because of the MSG. MSG has a mild but palpable effect on me and others. It makes me jittery and if I eat something with MSG in it before sleeping it makes for wakeful, unrestful sleep, with the result that I wake for work barely rested. And so, I eschew products that contain MSG. Can you please remove it from Knorr and Maggi products? And don't just rename it 'modified food starch' please!

A horrid change
Knorr bullion cubes were a great discovery for my wife and I. Now it is just another disappointing product.
My wife is SEVERELY allergic to garlic. When we first found Knorr Bullion, while stationed at Keflavik NAS Iceland, it had no garlic as an ingredient. So I experimented with it and found that I could use it. Now in the US all of the Knorr bullion cubes I can find are made in Mexico and have garlic in them. We can still use the Knorr stock base paste that is available in the in the United Grociers (Cash and Carry) store in town but who knows how long that will last. It seems like every time a food product says it is "New and Improved" they have added garlic.. it is very frustrating.

Good Flavor But
The flavor of the chicken bouillon is very good but the salt content is way too high. I use it when making rice which adds a great flavor. In order to get the flavor I want, my rice turns out salty every time. Do you make a low sodium chicken bouillon? If not, you need to. I would recommend this product to a friend but I would also warn them of the salt content.

Please list ALL ingredients.
I have a packet of these cubes in my cupboard at home. I cannot eat onion or garlic, so I thought these were safe as they do not list either as an ingredient. Yet I get sick whenever I use these in my cooking. Can Knorr please provide a list of ALL the ingredients? There is no good reason why they would not be listed on the packaging.
