I'm not a big Aromat fan. It is *mostly* MSG with a few pinches each of
other dried powdered spices thrown in (when we get down to the container
size one buys in the stores). I've taken a tour through one of the local
plants here that makes it under licence and have seen 'how it's made'.
They make stock cubes there too.

The place was very clean and all that, but the smell really put me off.
The 'mixed aroma' of the various spices they use (which are stored in
huge silo-type thingies) hanging in the air was awful. blech. I haven't
bought any since.
