I've not heard of Knorr stock either. I'll be on the lookout for it too!

I use a lot of Better Than Boullion low sodium chicken stock we found at Costco.

I really try to make as much as I can, but eventually it comes down to choosing your battles. Alas, free time is in short supply.
 
I rarely make stock these days.


I did once make a batch of stock, both fish and beef, I stored it in pots in the freezer, beef at the front and fish at the back of a shelf.


Unknown to me Mrs Wyshiepoo rearranged my stock in the shelf. I then made a Bouef Bourguignon/ Stroganoff type dish and unknowingly added fish stock to it. Mrs Wyshiepoo said it smelt like cat food.

:LOL: Surprise!
 
There's not much that I buy that I can't also make at home if I have the time and interest.

My efforts at making vinegar have been less than stellar, so I buy that.

Puff pastry is fun to make but is a pain, so I usually buy that.

I also use canned beans, canned tomatoes, dry pasta, canned curry paste, bagged coke slaw mix, and <hiding> Pillsbury crescent dough ....
 
Lately I've been giving in to buying homemade fermented sauerkraut. I have made it myself before and probably will again. but, it's a lot easier to buy.
