    The name makes me think it’s different than what it is. It’s also crazy adding chicken stock to salt. Last I checked, premade chicken stock is basically salt already. With that said, I would love to try it.

      Adding basically salt to salt doesn’t make the salt saltier. It just makes more salt.

    It’s a well known fact that what we call Chicken Salt is pretty much just salt and MSG. I call BS on the ‘all-natural ingredients’ in the recipe above.

      Glutamate is a natural byproduct of boiling meats when making soup or stock. Mono sodium glutamate is naturally present in cheese and tomatoes.

      But also a tiny amount goes a long way. I don’t think we can be trusted to sprinkle it on everything in most of America.

        TIL glutamate isn’t just a dry chemical powder. Point taken - but does it also come from vegetables, like the recipe above implies? EDIT: nvm, chicken stock…

          Yeah, I’m not a defending MSG or anything, and don’t use it directly, but I always make a big thick stock whenever we have a rotochicken or cook a Turkey.
