Default Avoid These Demi-glaces

Good lord, this stuff has gone up in price. I used to keep a container of
the chicken flavor on hand I think it was around $12 for 16 ounces then, I
used it in risotto when I didn't have any homemade chicken stock on hand,
was good for that use, but too bland for soups and most sauces IMO. At $28
for 16 ounces I'd never consider buying it.
