What is the difference between stock and bone broth? I honestly thought they were the same.

Stock is a rich, savory liquid prepared by simmering bones and vegetables in water for hours with herbs and spices until the flavor is extracted. Stock derives its flavor primarily from the protein, not from heavy sodium. As a result, stock is usually a healthier product, delivering a richer mouth feel and deeper flavor than broth. Stock is a versatile culinary tool that can deliver taste to any number of dishes. Darker in color and more concentrated in flavor than broth, it's ideal for use in soups, rice, sauces and more. Customize it to your preference by adding salt as needed. Broth is stock's cousin but has some key differences. Although both stock and broth involve simmering in water, broth uses meat while stock uses bones. As a result, broth contains very little protein, a key ingredient in building flavor. Additionally, broth often does not contain vegetables or herbs, thereby requiring higher sodium levels to impart flavor. The notable exception to this is bone broth, which is made like a stock but commonly referred to as a broth.

Is "chicken flavor" another way of saying it *does* contain free glutamate (as bad as msg)?

MSG is a chemical that causes some people headaches etc. It is not a good chemical to consume. I thought MSG was banned years ago. In 60's-70's there was talk about the health risks of msg. Something about collecting in the body or brain etc. Why would you want to put msg in your body, stick w/ natural salt.
