Hormel Foods advocates using its beef bullion for a “satisfying hot beverage”

Beef bullion drink

Right there in the middle, on the back of a packet of beef bullion:

"As a broth: For a satisfying hot beverage, dissolve contents in 1 cup (8 oz.) hot water."

I advocate throwing up in your mouth a little.

    Before throwing up, I thought you should know as a child, when I would get sick, I would drink beef boullion “as a satisfying hot beverage”. There was nothing better. The key seemed to be in the amount of sodium in it. When I tried the low sodium version it was horrible.

    Woke up this morning to an email from my mother saying the same thing, Cathy.

    I drink bullion in the winter.
    It’s delicious!
