to drinking a stock cube even though I know that's disgusting...

[QueenSconetta]

and really bad for me, but it's soooooo delicious and I was never allowed to do it as a kid?

I drink the veggie ones!

I don't drink stock cubes but will drink a cup of gravy

my dad loves a nice hot oxo in a mug, he is 72 though!

Mmm yum I love a cup of Oxo my mum used to give it to us when we were young

nothing wrong with a drink of oxo...much nicer than bovril

My dad's idea of a treat for us in the sixties was OXo made with milk [vom]

I have never heard of such a thing!

Is it not very salty? Can you not have soup, are times that austere?

oo no I do this, well - buillion (sp) stock anyway. Tisn't bad for you either v low in pretty much everything. nomnomnom

Personally, I think that most cup-a-soups of the veggie/chicken variety taste exactly how stock smells, so you don't sound that strange to me!

Oh, and my singing teacher used to advocate Marmite tea - I'm still a bit of a fan now on cold days

YABU unless you dip buttered bread in to it too

Pretty sure not pregnant (well I think I'm prety sure although did have a penchant for bovril the last time) but defo deranged after a stressful day with in public with a potty training 2 year old and my Mum who has 'lady of a certain age-itis'

I drink them! They are my cheap soup!

Porky I could have had soup, in fact there is a pan of homemade leek and potato soup on the cooker, but I just wanted a stock cube...

Muffin* oooh that sounds great...

oh that is a blast from the past, I remember as a kid we'd have a beef OXO cube in boiling water coming in from a cold wintery walk.. ah it was lovely :)

I drink oxo too, with a celery stick.

DH thinks I'm a bit freaky also he secretly loves that side of me too

Marigold stock granules are really yummy as a drink.

Mum used to give us a cups of oxo when we came in from school on cold days.

Yum

Ooh yes I love a nice cup of oxo. Put a half teaspoon of marmite in for an additional salty blast. Yum.

I drink Swiss Bouillon and Oxo (agree it's nicer than Bovril)

It's delicious. I like to lick the gungy paste bit off the stirring spoon as well

i particularly like veg oxo. yummy. only think o could drink at one stage of morning sickness...

Nothing wrong with this (not that I drink the stuff myself)

However, I can certainly raise the standards:- my late gran used to drink bovril made with hot milk.

eeeww.

We always drank Oxo when I was young, and if we were ill we had it in a bowl with bread broken up in it and ate it with a spoon. I loved it, can't think why/when I stopped drinking it (funnily enough I never took to Bovril).

Am I right in thinking it is zero calories?
