Bad beef brothe with mold in container

Swanson - Bad beef brothe with mold in container
20.00 worth of beef cubes ruined because started today pour the beef stock into pot with beef cubes and noticed halfway through the counter container something slimy. Cut open the box and yuck huge chunk of mold.

User's recommendation: Use can and open completely to check for mold.

Spoiled chicken broth

I opened a carton of your chicken broth and added it to $10.00 of chicken and veggies for chicken and noodles.A blob of either mold or decomposed mouse (it was unidentifiable) came out of carton and ruined my supper. Thank god we didnt eat it. After reading similar reviews we will no longer use any swanson product and recommend other users carefully inspect any product from this company for contamination.

User's recommendation: Dont buy chicken broth in a carton.

Terrible carton desogn

I bought 2 vegetable broth cartons and both appeared to be tampered with after I opened them. Both were a little smashed on the top so I thought this may be why, but I wasn't going to chance using them in my dish that day. Because of the design that now has spikes...

I had mold in my box of Swanson chicken broth!! Ruined my Thanksgiving dinner and holiday with getting very sick at the stomach and bad nausea and Headache!! I plan to pursue a lawsuit!

Molded Swanson chicken broth! That I and my family consumed! We are sick because of your product! I would say anyone who's thinking about using this product do not! And if you ever use this product before and got sick from it or it ruined your holiday as it has done mine pursue a lawsuit quickly! (Max) 40hzprophone@***.com

User's recommendation: Dont buy this product!!!!!! I am pissed and I am sick and my family is sick to on this holiday because of your product I will be pursuing a lawsuit. I have pictures and I have filed a formal complaint with corporate offices and with one of your representatives at 1 80*-***-****.

I bought 2 hungry man turkey dinners and cooked them last night. The word that comes to my mind is "pig slop"!

What to *** happened to your TV dinners. I used to but them for a treat but what a surprise. Turkey is like pieces of lunch meat and everything is just thrown together. Potatoes mixed with gravy and stuffing is really gross!

Why change things. They used to be really good. I used to like the potatoes separate. The best part of the meal.

You changed the type of potato too. Everything was just plain gross. I also cooked a fried chicken tv dinner. FRIED CHICKEN????

You mean a couple of little nuggets. Very misleading. I used to buy them when they were real chicken.

Never will I buy a Swanson dinner ever again!! Gross!

Correct an order

I initiated an order for a few items, including breakfast cereal and flax seed. After spending too much time trying to enter my new address, unsuccessfully, I gave up. The system threw in a charge for "powdered goat's milk" that I never even saw, let alone purchased. After struggling to convince the system that my new address was valid, I realized that Swanson has not improved in the four years that I made purchases from them. Sorry! Pream1027@***.com systems are seamless

User's recommendation: Don't be swayed by low prices; accuracy and ease of entry is mor important.

Moron. You can't take them to court first something that happened during shipping. As far as the undercooked chicken that would be your fault fir not cooking it.

When Swanson tv dinners 1st came out they were good, but now the Hungry Man dinners are the same size as the regular ones. The meat portions are almost non-existent, and you don't give desserts in all of them like you used to. The apple crisp dessert was good, so why did you take away the graham crust??? Now the desserts are no good anymore and the dinners are no good anymore either. What are you trying to do, ruin the company?! Bring back the good tv dinners and the good desserts and the bigger portions.

User's recommendation: Swanson tv dinners are no good and not worth the money anymore.
